Drug Charges

Charged With a Drug Offense? Call a Criminal Defense Attorney

Even a rumor of committing a sex crime can be extremely damaging to one’s reputation. If you are under suspicion for a sex crime, talk to an experienced attorney before you talk to anyone else. Call the Russo Law Offices in Wheaton, Illinois.

A sex crime will often make the headlines with very little factual information. You should talk to a criminal defense lawyer as soon as possible who will protect your rights. Anything you say can be misconstrued and used against you.

Our law firm has handled a wide range of sex crimes — rape, criminal sexual assault, aggravated criminal sexual assault, predatory criminal sexual assault of a child, date rape, child abuse, Internet child pornography, Internet solicitation of a minor, child molestation, criminal sexual abuse and aggravated criminal sexual abuse.

  • This is not a problem you should solve alone. You need an advocate and advisor – a lawyer who will assure your rights will be protected.
  • A sex crime can carry lifelong consequences. In addition to a lengthy prison sentence, a sex crime carries a requirement to register as a sex offender. For some sex crimes, sex offender registration is 15 years. For other crimes, lifetime sex offender registration is required.
  • We do our own thorough investigation. At our law firm, we will not rely on the police investigation. We often use retired police officers to investigate the charges, review all the evidence and interview the witnesses. Your reputation and your freedom are at stake – for the rest of your life. Contact a criminal defense lawyer who cares about what happens to you.

At the Russo Law Offices in Wheaton and Chicago, you can be assured of finding the right lawyer to help you deal with suspicions and charges of a sex crime. Attorney Richard Russo, using all the resources of the Associated Legal Services Chartered, provides experienced representation for clients who require a criminal defense lawyer.
