Rape Crimes

Fort Lauderdale Rape Crimes Attorneys

Rape is a sex crime that may be charged if a person forces another person to have unwanted sexual intercourse. The crime of rape is also referred to as sexual battery under criminal law. About 1 in 6 women and 1 in 33 men will be sexually assaulted in their lifetimes. Although these numbers may seem staggering, many victims of rape often do not step forward and report this crime out of fear or embarrassment. This in turn leads to fewer than 40% of rape crimes actually being reported and/or prosecuted.

At Musca Law we provide rock solid defense tactics and use our legal skill to help men or woman facing allegations of rape. We have seen many instances of false allegations or a misunderstanding by an alleged victim as to what actually constitutes rape. Through our own investigation we have actually discovered in many of our clients cases that the sex was actually mutually agreed upon, sometimes leading to a dismissal of all charges. It is very important for anyone who is facing a possible conviction for sexual battery that they contact a Fort Lauderdale rape crimes lawyer at Musca Law immediately.
