Child Sexual Abuse Lawyer

When you've been accused of child sexual abuse, your reputation is at stake, and you're facing the possibility of a criminal record that could haunt you for years to come. Our criminal defence lawyers are well-versed in all aspects of Canadian criminal law and have experience defending cases involving child sexual abuse, and we can defend yours.
Child sexual abuse is a serious accusation. A conviction for sexual offences carries a mandatory minimum sentence of up to 1 year, depending upon whether the Crown pursues a summary (less serious) or indictable offence (more serious). If you are indicted for sexual assault of a child, you could face 14 years in prison. The penalties increase if the child suffers physical harm or a weapon is used. You will also be required to register on the provincial and federal sex offender registries, possibly for life.
