Child Abuse

Florida Child Abuse Attorney

Child abuse — whether physical or sexual — is a devastating crime, casting long shadows over victims, perpetrators and alleged perpetrators. In a child abuse case, determining the accuracy of memory is an important aspect of defending your case.

At the office of Joseph Montrone Jr., P.A., Attorney at Law, defending those charged with crimes such as child abuse means ensuring that evidence is handled and presented accurately. I do everything within my power to protect my clients and their rights. No matter what you have been accused of, you have rights.

A Matter of Evidence, Truth and Consistency

When the possibility of significant prison time is at stake in a case related to child abuse, child sexual battery, possession of child pornography or solicitation of a minor, it is important to ensure that the facts related to the case are truthful, accurate and consistent. These factors become even more crucial in cases of adults bringing forward allegations of abuse that may have taken place in childhood. My work for clients charged with child abuse is to test the veracity or credibility of the accuser and determine if there is enough consistent evidence to warrant a trial.

Protecting Yourself

If you have been charged with child abuse, one of the most important steps you can take is to refrain from speaking with anyone other than your lawyer about the details of the case. It is not unusual for defendants to unknowingly incriminate themselves by engaging in phone conversations from which information can be taken out of context.

Rely on My Experience

As an attorney with significant experience as a prosecutor in child abuse cases, I have interviewed literally hundreds of children who have been the victims of abuse or made allegations of abuse. I utilize this experience in my defense practice, gathering information needed to make a positive impact on my clients’ cases without coercion or intimidation tactics.
