So to best avoid what can be an extremely trying and difficult future, having competent and experienced counsel is important.
As a female attorney, Attorney Pamela Saia-Rogers is sensitive to the plight of her male clients. No judgment is passed, no assertions are made and the male client can feel comfortable with her and her representation. Some of her former clients have felt more comfortable having a female attorney represent them on such delicate issues since the alleged victims tend to be female. At trial, the cross examination of the alleged victim can be quite contentious and the delivery of the cross by a female may help a jury to be less sympathetic towards that alleged victim.
Procedurally speaking, a sex offense case may last longer than any other case due to medical or psychological issues that may relate to the alleged victim. The process of obtaining records, reading the records and being allowed to use portions of those records is quite long and complex. Attorney Pamela Saia-Rogers has the experience to handle this process for the accused.
Rape and Indecent Assault and Battery cases have different evidentiary standards at trial than other criminal charges, again, an experienced attorney such as Pamela Saia-Rogers, is of extreme importance to handle the case effectively.
