Get support and advice from specialist sexual assault solicitors

Dealing with allegations of sexual assault calls for specialist assistance – someone who can provide not only highly relevant legal expertise, but also confidential guidance and support. Our sexual assault solicitors do exactly that.

That’s because there is a huge stigma attached to sexual assault allegations. Even those with no substance can harm your personal and professional life, your relationships, and your mental health.

The most important thing is to secure that relevant legal support and advice as soon as possible. Building the best defence requires specialist expertise and a proactive attitude to listening to you and gathering evidence – not letting the police be your guide.

Reach out to us at enquiries@parnellandpeel.co.uk for a completely confidential chat about your situation. Let’s see how we can start to work to get you the best possible outcome.

The easiest thing to do is to speak with one of our legal team please.  Please either call us on 033 03411690 or make a Free Online Enquiry. All enquiries are completely confidential.

How Our Sexual Assault Lawyers Support You

Even if the police say they want to interview you on a voluntary basis, it is best not to answer any questions until you have a specialist sexual assault lawyer present. This is true even if the police say arranging for legal representation will make you look guilty.

That’s not how it works. A legal expert will simply ensure that you are in control of the situation and the facts are communicated to you clearly and correctly. Our specialists in sexual assault allegations can help you:

1) Defend Yourself Proactively

The best strategy is often to engage with the police officers working on your case early on. This can mean researching and drawing their attention to evidence that supports your defence, such as:

  • Any digital trail – such as text or WhatsApp messages or evidence on social media or on your mobile phone.
  • Video evidence – such as CCTV footage or images on social media or your phone.
  • Timelines – showing who said what and when and where people were at any given time.
  • Witness testimonies – from those who might support your defence.
  • Relevant previous information – that may illuminate why an allegation may have been made.

One of the key responsibilities of investigators in these matters is to judge the chances of a positive conviction. If evidence builds up showing this to be less likely, it may be possible to gently approach the subject of avoiding trial altogether.

This might be done through a “representation”, a letter to the officer in charge of the investigation pointing out the weaknesses in the evidence.

2) Get Support And Advice

Act early to make sure you have the expert legal advice and the discreet, sympathetic support you need:

  • In the police station – during interviews and re-interviews, including before you are charged and when you are being interviewed voluntarily.
  • At Crown Court – we can provide the representation you need at Crown Court level, should your case go that far.

What Constitutes Sexual Assault?

Sexual assault is defined in law in England and Wales in the Sexual Offences Act 2003. It says that sexual assault involves a person:

  • Intentionally touching someone else in a sexual manner
  • Touching with any part of the body or an object
  • Not reasonably believing the other person consents to this touch

It’s important to note that “rape” and “sexual assault” are counted as different things under Welsh and English law. Some people are more comfortable saying “sexual assault” though, meaning there can be an overlap in the way they are used.

However, if the police talk to you about a sexual offence allegation, they must tell you exactly what you are being accused of.
What types of sexual assault are there?

The definition above can cover a wide range of specific acts. These might include kissing or touching any part of someone’s body or their clothing in a sexual manner or for sexual pleasure. It also includes attempting to persuade or pressure them to perform a sexual act, including on themselves or on somebody else.

In addition, it covers a person “causing” another person – usually through coercion or pressure – to engage in sexual activity without their consent. This might not actually involve physically touching them, but is still counted an offence on par with other types of sexual assaults.

How We Can Help You With A Sexual Assault Allegation

I was relieved when the Prosecution dropped by Case. I will forever be grateful to the team at Parnell.”

Anonymous

These guys are the real deal. Abdul was absolutely excellent in dealing with my drink driving case. We didn’t have a very strong case but thanks to his preparation, perseverance and calm approach in court, the charge was dropped.

In court, Abdul was quick thinking and really dictated the speed and flow of proceedings, taking time to properly consider the argument put forward and close down the prosecution.

Highly recommend.

Mr Abdul Ali took my case on a few weeks before my case, he understood how vital it was for me to not get a ban on my driving licence due to totting up of points.

He was reassuring all through out the build up to my case, he guided me all through the information I would need for presenting evidence for an exceptional hardship case and on the day went through how the court process would be.

I was very nervous but through his expertise and guidance I was able to present my case and was successful in not being banned from driving.

I could not state highly enough how valuable he was to my case and me personally as soon as I met him I knew he was the right solicitor for me.

He took the time to understand my case and what I had to loose and did everything in professional capacity in court to ensure I received the verdict that I wanted.

I would highly recommend his services and expertise to anyone in such driving offences situation.

Gani Qufaj

First of all I would like to start with a massive Thankyou to Abdul Ali and his team.

This is to be my first review as I have never ever posted one.

I was charged with Failure To Provide Specimen with the suspicion of driving under the influence of alcohol.

The prosecution was looking to throw the book at me give a custodial sentence however due to Abdul’s above and beyond examination of the evidence it was concluded that the prosecution had no case as they had no evidence of me driving the car.

If you are in trouble it is always worth getting legal advice and seeing what can be done.

This guy is an extremely educated person and knows exactly what he is talking about.

He was throughout in contact even answering my phone at stupid times when I used to have some questions so I got to give it to him for his dedication.

All in all I would definitely say this firm and Abdul Ali is definitely someone I’d blindly put my trust in.

Worth every penny!

I was certain I would lose my license at the time.

In the end I didn’t even need to go to trial as my case was dropped a few days before, all thanks to Abdul and his team.

I can’t thank him enough and I would highly recommend Parnell and Peel solicitors to anyone.
