We are very different

Typically, traditional law firms have expensive offices, layer upon layer of partners and associates, not to mention company cars and lots of long lunches. Guess who pays for all of that? Yes, you do—the client. At Repute Law, we think this approach is just plain wrong, so we take an entirely new approach. We truly value our clients, and we keep all our company expenditures as low as possible so that your money is spent on what it needs to be spent on—the best Senior Criminal Defence Lawyer and legal advice to get you the best outcome. If you have been charged with a sexual offence, you know we will look after you in every way possible, both legally and financially.   

The serious impact of your charge

Sexual offences come with severe penalties. A conviction can be life-changing and result in a significant prison sentence. It can also result in a listing on the Sex Offenders Register with reporting obligations from eight years to life. 

A sexual assault charge can also have far-reaching consequences on your ability to engage in certain types of employment. You may lose your ability to work with children, to reside in certain areas, to travel outside the country or to visit specific locations, businesses or establishments.

The impact of an accusation is also devastating for everyone involved and their families. You can also face irreparable damage to your reputation, which may also have lingering consequences for your immediate family. 

At Repute Law, we understand the stressful nature of a sexual assault charge. We also know how critical it is to secure expert legal support for your defence. Early representation could mean the difference between a conviction and an acquittal. Any delay could be detrimental to your case, so calling our legal hotline is the first place you should begin.

FAQs

Sexual harassment, intimidation, assault and indecent exposure are some of the most common sexual offences in Australia. You can rely on the team at Repute Law for exceptional representation by senior legal professionals throughout your case.

You should immediately contact Repute Law to represent you. This can be an extremely complex and distressing area of the law, and you need a seasoned legal professional by your side. At Repute Law, we offer Senior legal representation at a fixed fee price.

Sexual offences are considered criminal charges in all states, territories and jurisdictions of Australia. The sooner you contact a Senior Sexual Assault Lawyer, the sooner we can work on building a defence for your case.

This will depend on the severity of the allegation and the circumstances and criminal history of the alleged offender. Matters which proceed in the Local Court should lead to bail dependent on whether there is a criminal history or other circumstances in an accused’s life which pose an unacceptable risk of further offending, interfering with witnesses or failing to appear in Court. Reach out to Repute Law to discuss the specifics of your charge.

Sexual assault charges, by their very nature, are seen as serious. However, you should know that some charges are more serious than others, carrying more significant punishment and also leading to registration on the Sex Offenders Registry.

There are a wide range of sexual offences ranging from minor assaults for which it may be possible to obtain a Section 10 dismissal to aggravated sexual assaults, which carry a maximum penalty of 20 years imprisonment.

This will depend on the nature of the charge you have received. To be a sexual act, a person must carry out a deed that a reasonable individual would consider sexual. As most sexual offences come with imprisonment terms, you need to contact the Repute Law hotline today.

If you plead guilty, you acknowledge all the elements of the offence and are entitled up to a 25% discount on the sentence. It is essential before determining your plea to seek legal advice. A Senior Criminal Lawyer should assess the case against you to determine if there is a case for you to answer.

Experience matters. With a guaranteed Senior Criminal Defence Lawyer and a Case Concierge™, who is also a qualified lawyer, you will receive exceptional and professional service to ensure the best possible outcome.
