To be charged with a sex offense is a lose/lose proposition. Even if you win the case, it is excruciatingly painful and has a negative effect on career, relationships and reputation.

At Rivers Law Firm, P.A., we understand the sensitivity of sex cases. We make no judgment of clients, and we focus our efforts on minimizing the pain that goes with the accusation against you. The truth is that many accusations of sexual crimes are fabricated by people who are angry, confused or unstable. We never lose sight of the cornerstone of our justice system that a person is innocent until proven guilty.

Sex crime defense attorney Bruce Rivers is board certified in criminal defense by the National Board of Trial Advocacy, and as a criminal trial specialist by the Minnesota State Bar Association.

Our aim is to achieve the best possible outcome for you. Very often the result is dismissal of charges and the clearing of your name. We pick apart the prosecution’s case looking for weaknesses, and when we identify them, we argue for acquittal, reduction in charges or minimum punishment.

In addition to sexual assault charges, we can aggressively defend you against the following sex crimes:

• • Sexual abuse of a child
• • Online sex offenses, such as child pornography
• • Prostitution or solicitation offenses
• • Rape and statutory rape
• • Failure to properly register as a sex offender

Don’t be pressured to plead guilty. Call Minneapolis criminal defense lawyer Bruce Rivers the moment you need a tough defense against charges of sexual impropriety. Contact him using this email form, or call his office at 612-915-0355.
