- Mistaken Identity: Someone else committed the assault and the wrong party has been identified as the perpetrator.
- Age: Our sexual assault lawyers can argue that you truly believed the victim was age 16 or older and therefore able to give consent.
- You Were Not in Control: There could be situations where someone accused of a crime had no control over their behavior. This could occur if they were drugged without their knowledge or did not have the cognitive ability to choose to engage in the behaviors knowingly.

Our King of Prussia Child Sexual Assault Lawyer Can Assess Your Case
Pennsylvania has strict laws to protect children from sex crimes. PA laws enforce strong penalties to address and deter crimes involving children, with severe repercussions for those who commit them. If convicted, you could face extended time behind bars and mandatory sex offender registration.
The exact penalties you face depend on the crime you are convicted of. The defense attorney at David McKenzie Law, can defend you against charges of:
Statutory Sexual Assault
Under 18 Pa. C.S.A. § 3122.1, any sexual intercourse with someone under 16 years of age constitutes statutory sexual assault.
This crime may be classified as a first- or second-degree felony, depending on your age. A second-degree felony carries a maximum prison sentence of 10 years under 18 Pa. C.S.A. § 106. A first-degree felony calls for a longer time behind bars.
Rape of a Child
Engaging in sex with a child under 13 years old is rape as defined under 18 Pa. C.S.A. § 3121(c). This is a first-degree felony. If the child suffered serious bodily injury during the rape, the accused could face up to life in prison. Our King of Prussia defense attorney can fight hard to help you avoid this outcome.
Indecent Assault of a Child
Under 18 Pa. C.S.A. § 3126, this crime involves the touching of intimate parts for sexual gratification without the victim’s consent. When the victim is under 13, the offense becomes more serious. You could be charged with a second-degree felony unless David McKenzie Law finds a way to get the charges reduced or thrown out.
Aggravated Indecent Assault of a Child
This crime, as defined by 18 Pa. C.S.A. § 3125, involves penetration of the child’s genitals or anus with any object or body part. When the victim is a child under age 13, this is a first-degree felony.
Being convicted of any of the crimes described above could mean you need to register as a sex offender under Megan’s Law.
