Portland Child Abuse Defense Lawyers

Violent Crime Attorneys in Portland, Oregon

Virtually any person who has children or who deals with children on a regular basis may be at risk of facing child abuse allegations. When child abuse allegations are real, it is important that the child be protected. But all too often, abuse accusations may be entirely false and invented, may be exaggerated, or may be made due to mistaken identity.

A Portland criminal defense attorney can help you avoid a conviction for false child abuse allegations. By investigating your charges, interviewing witnesses and evaluating physical evidence, an attorney and his or her team can determine how to best prove that child abuse charges are false or invented, or that there is not enough evidence to file charges and/or reach a conviction. Even when facing child abuse charges, a defendant has the right to the due process of the law and should not face criminal charges when there is no evidence of any wrongdoing.

In order to have your rights protected and your liberty safeguarded, you will need the aggressive representation of a defense lawyer as soon as possible.
