Milwaukee and Waukesha Sexual Assault Charges
In the American judicial system, sex crimes are among the most harshly penalized of all violations, especially when those crimes involve children. And penalties for conviction on sex abuse charges in Milwaukee or Waukesha are not limited to jail time or fines:
- Those convicted of sexual assault charges must register as sex crime offenders, and face restrictions on where they can live or work.
- Convicted sex crime offenders may be committed to a hospital following their release from jail.
- The social stigma of any sex offense can also invite discrimination and prejudice from friends, relatives and coworkers, regardless of the merits of those charges.

Building a sexual assault defense
Whether in Waukesha, Milwaukee, or elsewhere in Wisconsin, Hayes & Rothstein begins planning every sexual assault defense the same way: by sitting down with the accused, discussing the case at length, and understanding the specific elements of the individual sexual abuse charge. Only by truly understanding what makes a particular case unique can our attorneys begin planning a proper legal defense.
We also understand that most successful legal defenses are proactive legal defenses. Waiting to see what evidence the prosecution gathers, then reacting to that evidence, can lead to disaster. Experienced sexual assault defense attorneys understand the need to gather their own evidence that supports the case of the defendant. Furthermore, they also understand the specific rules of evidence applicable to sexual assault cases, and how to use those laws to suppress potentially damning evidence gathered by the prosecution.
Lastly, our lawyers make sure you understand the full extent of your legal rights as a defendant, not just the ones that the police and prosecutors have concerned themselves with bringing to your attention. You may not be aware of all of the protections the U.S. Constitution affords you— we make it our business to educate our clients in this regard.
