Milwaukee Sex Offense Lawyer Michael Hayes can keep an Arrest for a Sex Offense from Ruining Your Life

Any allegation, investigation, arrest, or prosecution should be taken very seriously, but an allegation of a sex crime that may lead to a conviction can have far-reaching consequences that negatively affect every aspect of your life for years to come. The top Milwaukee sex offense lawyer Michael Hayes represents people in Milwaukee and Waukesha who have been arrested, placed under suspicion for a sex offense, and need skilled, knowledgeable, and proactive criminal defense to protect all of their interests.

Our attorneys represent people charged with any type of sex offense, including:

• Sexual assault or rape

Sexual assault is a serious felony that can be charged under different statutes with severe penalties for conviction, up to and including life in prison. Penalties can be increased depending upon many factors, including a prior history of sex crimes, if the victim was a child or elderly person, if a caregiver commits the act, or if there was transmission of a sexual disease.

Sex Offender Registration

Wisconsin, like other states, also has its version of Megan’s Law, requiring convicted sex offenders to sign on to a sex offender registry. The sex offender registry is online and open to the public as well as law enforcement and can impact where you are able to live and work for the rest of your life.
