For the best chance of clearing your name, you need a strong, professional Alpharetta criminal defense lawyer who will fight for you. Brian Hansford Law is here for you.

Sex Crime Cases in the Courtroom

In criminal cases, the prosecution must provide compelling evidence that the accused committed the crime. If there is not strong evidence, the jury should not give a verdict for a conviction.

However, sex crimes are a very sensitive issue. Victims receive a high amount of sympathy, and the case may result in unfair negative publicity for the accused. In order to combat these biases, a strong defense is necessary.

At Brian Hansford Law, we are experienced in defense strategies for sex crimes, including:

  • Disputing evidence presented by the prosecution
  • Presenting evidence that you were elsewhere at the time the crime was committed (an alibi)
  • Affirming that you have been misidentified as the perpetrator, if possible
  • Overcoming jury bias by presenting favorable evidence of your character and reputation
  • Obtaining testimony of consent to the sexual act

    "They even got back to me on weekends."
    Brian and Erin are amazing! They are caring and always there for you. I bombarded them with questions and they had an answer for me every time. Even got back to me on weekends, which I never expected. If I have another need I will use them and their office again.

    "I always felt like I knew exactly where my case stood."
    I sought Brian's help for a DUI charge. Even though I was a first offender with no prior arrests, I faced some serious charges due to the circumstances of my offense. Brian counseled me on the steps to take before my court appearance in order to make my case as strong as possible. He was also able to get my most serious charge dismissed, which enabled me to obtain a limited driving permit for work, child's transportation to school, etc. Brian's office also provided information that allowed me to complete much of my sentence before my plea, including DUI school, substance abuse assessment, and all of my community service. The sentence resulting from my plea agreement was the best I could have hoped for, given the circumstances. Brian and his assistant Erin Bell kept me updated throughout the progress of my case and responded quickly to all of my questions. I always felt like I knew exactly where my case stood, and what to expect next. Since my arrest, I have spoken with others charged with DUI who have been amazed by the assistance I received from my attorney. Many told me that they had trouble contacting their attorneys, or scheduling appointments, and some received harsher sentences. I feel extremely fortunate to have had Brian and Erin on my side throughout this process. Brian's services may be more expensive than that of some others, but he is definitely worth it. I greatly appreciate his help during this difficult time.

    "Super responsive and great to work with"

    Brian Hansford represented my 18-year-old son in a first offense reckless driving case. Brian was able to obtain a plea deal bringing the case from a 6-month suspension of his license and $1,000.00 fine to community service, a defensive driving course and a much-reduced fine of under $100.00. He and his assistant Erin were super responsive and great to work with. I hope never to need this type of legal help again, but if I do I would not hesitate to use Brian again to help.

    - Marianne
    "Represented by the best legal team in the area"

    Brian and his team did an excellent job advising and then representing us in court after our daughter was viciously beaten at a party. They were professional and courteous throughout the process. Brian and his fellow attorney Jennifer Ray took their time to make sure they had all of the facts before moving forward. Erin Bell, Brian's legal secretary did a great job keeping us informed as to the status of our case. I can honestly say that I feel my daughter was represented by the best legal team in the area. I recommend Brian's firm without reservation to anyone in need of his services.

    "Mr. Hansford put my mind at ease"

    Mr. Brian Hansford advised me of my legal liability regarding a vehicular accident I was involved in. I was ticketed and summonsed to appear in court. The ticket stated I failed to obey a traffic signal resulting in an accident with another party. In reality, I had been distracted by a police operation (lane closure, three police cars with flashing lights, officers on the road arresting someone) that was occurring at this same intersection at the same time. I had been distracted by this and took my eyes off the traffic signal not noticing a light change. Mr. Hansford was successfully able to have the charge downgraded. I did not have to appear in court and I paid a very small fine with no points recorded against my license. Having the accident and a resulting ticket plus the impending court appearance caused me a great deal of anxiety and stress. Mr. Hansford put my mind at ease. He was a good listener, courteous and a pleasure to deal with. His legal assistant Erin was also great to deal with, highly efficient and very respectful. I am now VERY careful around intersections but I would not hesitate to use Mr. Hansford again should any future legal need arise. I am grateful for his counsel and would highly recommend him.

    "They were on top of my case from day one."
    Brian and team were reassuring and certainly prepared to take my case! They were on top of my case from day one and followed through when some court-related documentation were not processed correctly. I would like to especially thank his paralegal Erin who was instrumental in keeping me informed and updating Brian when needed. Brian is honest and has years of experience with the Georgia court system. When I started this process he was just a name on a list at the end of this journey he will always be someone that I will always trust and provide a reference when needed.

    "An amazing and knowledgeable attorney."
    Brian has helped me and my family with several cases. Not only is he an amazing and knowledgeable attorney, he also truly cares about his clients. I can't thank Brian enough and, if the need arises, I would not hesitate to call on him again.
    - Cindy
    "Brian is well-respected in the Alpharetta courts"

    Brian met with us within 2 days of my daughter's DUI less safe charge. Having never even heard of DUI less safe, I was reassured to have him representing her. His staff kept us informed throughout the process and answered our questions. He gave us a realistic scenario of what the final outcome would be and we were so relieved that he delivered an even better conclusion to this nightmare. Brian is well-respected in the Alpharetta courts and we are certain his professional relationships with the people there were key in receiving the best outcome.
