Defending You Against Sex Charges in Murfreesboro and Middle Tennessee

Few criminal charges carry the societal stigma as a sex crime. Even if you are not convicted, the accusation can result in embarrassment and the presumption that you are guilty. A conviction can result in a lengthy prison sentence and the prospect of lifetime registration as a sex offender.

Anyone who faces sex charges in Tennessee should immediately seek the assistance of an experienced defense lawyer. At the Law Offices of Howard, Kendrick & Reynolds in Murfreesboro, we will provide a prompt and aggressive defense to minimize the potential of life-changing consequences.

We are experienced in defending people charged with all types of sex crimes, including:

  • Misdemeanor offenses such as prostitution and indecent exposure
  • Attempted criminal sexual conduct resulting from a Internet chat room sting
  • "Sexting" charges for transmitting images over a cell phone
  • Rape and statutory rape
  • Sexual misconduct of a professional such as a teacher or counselor
  • Sexual abuse
  • Child molestation
  • Child pornography

Don't Talk to Police

If you are accused of a sex crime, you should talk to a lawyer before you speak to anyone else. Without information supplied by you, the prosecution may not have enough evidence to even charge you with a crime. By attempting to explain the circumstances of a sexual accusation, you could inadvertently give police the evidence they need to charge you with a crime.

Our primary goal in a case involving sex charges is to keep you from the public embarrassment of facing sex charges. If we are not able to prevent the police from charging you, we will review the state's evidence against you and recommend a defense strategy tailored to the facts of your case.
