What are sexual offences in the UK?

  • Rape: Non-consensual intercourse, defined under the Sexual Offences Act 2003.
  • Sexual assault: Unwanted sexual touching or any form of non-consensual physical contact of a sexual nature.
  • Child sexual offences: Ranging from sexual activity with a minor to grooming and possession of indecent images of children.
  • Indecent exposure: Deliberately exposing oneself in public with the intention of causing alarm or distress.
  • Online sexual offences: Such as sexting minors, distributing indecent images, or engaging in sexual activity through digital means.

How can a solicitor help with sexual offence charges, and what does it cost?

A criminal defence solicitor can:

  • Protect your rights: Advising you during police interviews, ensuring fair treatment and proper procedure.
  • Examine evidence: Reviewing forensic reports, witness statements, and digital evidence to find potential inaccuracies or legal defences.
  • Represent you in court: Preparing a robust defence strategy, cross-examining prosecution witnesses, and advocating for a fair trial.
  • Negotiate outcomes: If it’s in your best interest, your solicitor may negotiate with the prosecution for lesser charges or a reduced sentence.

Costs depend on the seriousness of the charges and the solicitor’s experience. Hourly rates commonly range from £100 to £300. In serious cases, you might qualify for legal aid, which can cover all or part of your legal fees if you meet financial and case-related criteria. An initial consultation—often provided at a reduced rate or free—will help you understand your options, potential defences, and approximate costs.
