Sexual assault cases require unique legal expertise on the part of the defense because an accusation alone can damage the accused public reputation for life and even destroy aspects of their private life.

“While the American justice system guarantees that everyone accused of sexual assault is innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt, the court of public opinion can pass judgment much more swiftly,” says Dallas Defense Attorney Mick Mickelsen, partner and cofounder at Broden & Mickelsen Attorneys At Law. “Tragically, wrongful convictions can and do happen, which can lead to an innocent person being convicted, incarcerated, and subject to other penalties.”
