Defending Clients Facing Sex Crime Charges in San Mateo County

A sex crime conviction carries life-alerting consequences. In addition to jail time, convicted individuals are required to register as sex offenders for the rest of their lives. Your life would likely never go back to what you once considered normal. Trust your future to an experienced criminal defense attorney.

At the Law Office of Shelley D. Dwyer, we have a deep background in successfully defending people who have been accused of sex crimes, like you. For over 30 years, attorney Shelley D. Dwyer has defended hard-working people, including police officers, lawyers, professionals, and juveniles. She never judges clients — her role is to refute the evidence against them and protect their constitutional rights.

Why Choose The Law Offices of Shelley D. Dwyer?

Attorney Shelley D. Dwyer is an aggressive Bay Area criminal defense lawyer who has defended clients in more than 150 jury trials. She has a firm understanding of how sex crimes are handled by law enforcement and prosecutors in California. Her detailed focus protects clients by finding any loopholes in the case against them.

She is well-prepared to defend you or a loved one from serious sex crime allegations, involving:

• Rape
• Date rape
• Molestation
• Sexual abuse
• Sexual assault
• Statutory rape
• Child pornography
• Solicitation of a minor
• Criminal sexual misconduct

Consent is never a defense in sex crimes involving minors. Mrs. Dwyer acts as a shield to protect clients from saying anything to law enforcement when investigated or charged with a sex crime. Anything you say to explain your side of the story could instead be used as evidence against you.

• Attorney Shelley D. Dwyer works closely with forensic computer experts to identify if and when child porn images were viewed or deleted on a computer.
• This helps us create a strong defense based on whether a roommate or child viewed the images on your computer.
