Over half of Pomona molestation-abuse accusations are false, yet this crime has the highest conviction rate of any felony charge. An accusation of Pomona child molestation can start in a custody battle and lead to juvenile and criminal cases. An anonymous accusation of abuse can lead to the removal of your children, to criminal charges, to separation from your spouse, and ultimately a prison sentence.
Your best defense is to understand the system you face and have the most experienced legal representation possible. At the Pomona law offices of the Wise Laws Team, we have been protecting the rights of individuals throughout Pomona facing false accusations of Pomona CA child sexual molestation for over thirty years.
It is very easy to be falsely accused of Pomona child abuse or lewd acts on a child, but it is exceptionally difficult to be exonerated in court. Even though 50-60% of molestation or abuse charges are false, more of these trials end in the wrongful conviction of the innocent than any other type of Pomona CA criminal case. With widespread media attention often causing a state of hysteria, this highly emotional charge tends to destroy the ability of the system to handle such cases objectively.
In family situations, frustration can suddenly turn to anger, and anger can sometimes turn into physical violence against a child. The result can be an arrest for child abuse and the need for a Pomona child abuse attorney. More than 3 million children are reported as neglected or abused in the U.S. every year. Most of the abuse is physical or psychological. Three-fourths of those held responsible are parents.
There are strict reporting laws for child abuse, assault, and neglect in Pomona. Teachers, day care workers, healthcare workers, and others who work with children are required to report signs of Pomona child abuse, Pomona assault, or neglect.
