Lake County Sex Crime Defense Lawyer
The law firm of Morrison & Morrison, P.C., in Waukegan, Illinois, represents adults and juveniles facing sex crime charges in Libertyville, Lake Forest, Deerfield, Highland Park, Gurnee, Waukegan, North Chicago, Zion and other parts of Lake County, Cook County, McHenry County and DuPage County.
Waukegan sex crime defense lawyer Don Morrison, a former Lake County prosecutor in the State Attorney General's office, has handled both misdemeanor and felony sex crime cases from both sides of the aisle. As a prosecutor, he took numerous cases to jury verdict. As a criminal defense attorney, he has obtained acquittals and dismissals.
He defends against charges of person-on-person sex crimes, such as:
- Predatory criminal sexual assault of a child
- Aggravated criminal sexual assault
- Aggravated criminal sexual abuse
- Criminal sexual assault
- Criminal sexual abuse
He also handles Internet sex crime defense in cases such as:
- Indecent solicitation of a child
- Possession, distribution or manufacture of child pornography
- Cyber stalking
Five years ago, Internet crimes were handled just like other sex crimes, but now the state is paying more attention to these cases. There is an entire division of the Lake County Attorney's office that deals with Internet sex crimes. This has resulted in many more criminal charges for attempted crimes — crimes such as online solicitation of a minor.
Our firm has been successful in many sex crime cases. We recently achieved not-guilty verdicts in two jury trials involving child sex crimes.
Our goal in all sex crime cases is to protect your rights, to reduce any criminal charges you may face, and to obtain the best possible result given the facts of your case.
