Sexual Offences

Sexual offences can encompass a broad range of conduct, from unwanted touching of a sexual nature to non-consensual sexual intercourse. The lawyers at Filkow Law understand the social stigma associated with a sexual offence can be devastating. The criminal penalties and other consequences for sexual offences are severe. In criminal law, the stakes are always high, but rarely higher than they are in a sexual offence case.

Sexual Assault in the Criminal Code

Amendments to the Criminal Code, following a number of high-profile sexual assault cases in Canada, have made defending sexual offence cases more complicated. An allegation of any type of sexual offence must be handled by experienced and skilled counsel. The lawyers at Filkow Law have extensive experience, are up to date on the law, and are highly skilled in dealing with all types of sexual allegations.
