Important Tips for People Who Have Been Accused of a Sex Crime

1. Do NOT talk to the police. They do not want to "hear your side of the story", or "straighten this out." They want you to incriminate yourself and make it easier to convict you, whether you are actually guilty or not.

2. Do not speak with anyone else about the accusations. The police will speak to those close to you to try to gather evidence against you. Especially at the beginning, you don't know what details might be important, and its best not to make any statements to anyone.

3. Immediately retain a skilled, experienced lawyer to defend you, and do what he says.

4. Realize how serious the charge is. Often people assume that because they are innocent the case against them can't be strong and will be easily dealt with. The reality is that innocent people are convicted of sex crimes at a disturbing rate. You cannot predict the strength of the case against you at the beginning, because you will not know everything that has been said by the alleged victim and other witnesses, or what other evidence has been collected. A sex crime charge is always a very serious matter.

“I would absolutely recommend Ernie to anyone.”

Diane

He was more than just my lawyer. He was my guardian angel during a very scary and desperate time in my life. He walked with me every step of the way and looked out for my best interest at every twist and turn. He stayed available seven days a week and within moments of my reaching out to him. I will be indebted to him forever. I knew I was in safe hands even though my matter kept me in constant fear. He gave me the courage to keep pushing forward and spent countless hours cheerleading me through an unspeakable experience.

"Attorney Stone was excellent."

He was extremely knowledgeable and knew his way around the Diversion Program and the Court. He gave us all the information and potential results upfront. He explained the entire process to us from start to finish and he mapped out a plan of action that resulted in a favorable outcome for my child. I would recommend Attorney Stone 100 percent. Thanks to him my child has no criminal record.

"I can't say enough about Ernie and his team. "

They helped our family navigate a very delicate and complicated legal situation. We couldn't be more pleased with the outcome. And Ernie's down-to-earth demeanor helped us feel like we were being listened to and never being talked down to. I would highly recommend Ernie, as I am certain he would do his absolute best to achieve a best-case-scenario outcome for every single one of his clients.

"Much love and appreciation to this group"

I would recommend them to anyone. From the first call I knew this was the right choice. Ernie kept my best interests in mind when representing me with results better than expected! I can’t thank them enough. Special shout-out to Joanne who is truly the nicest person. Their whole vibe was homely like family. Much love and appreciation to this group... even the 4 legged nugget running around their office.

"I was in good hands..."

Before working with Ernie I was very unaware of how my future would be and felt alone in my case; that all changed once I had Ernie Stone as my lawyer. Very professional, very reassuring, very caring and helpful with any questions you may have. I can definitely say that there was always a smile on their faces and made me feel welcomed and well taken care of. I had no doubt in mind that I was in good hands and that I was going to be alright.
