Fred Mark Dry: Sex Crimes & Internet Sex Crimes Attorney

Conviction of a sexual crime is one of the more serious criminal convictions. Besides the stigma of being branded a sexual predator, long prison terms in Illinois are fairly common. Even upon release from prison, the police may publicize your name, address and photograph to make the public aware of your presence.

The hardships for a convicted sex offender don't stop there. You may also face restrictions on types of employment you can hold and where you are allowed to live. A charge like this should not be taken lightly - even a misdemeanor can have a lasting effect on the rest of your life.

To minimize the negative impact a sexual charge can have on your life, your freedom, and your ability to provide for your family, it is important to have an experienced attorney working to protect your rights.

The immediate issues to consider are:

• Was your arrest legal?
• Was the search of your computer lawful?
• Were you aware of unlawful content on your computer?
• Was an arrest warrant or search warrant properly issued & executed?

Fred Dry has over 32 years of experience and success with the following sexual-related cases:

• Internet sex crimes
• Sexual abuse
• Date rape
• Child pornography
• Crimes of Prostitution & Solicitation
• Criminal Sexual Abuse/Assault and Aggravated Criminal Sexual Abuse/Assault

Although every case is different, pleading guilty rarely produces a positive outcome. Contacting an attorney before charges are brought against you is your best option. If you've already been convicted of a sexual crime in Illinois, relief via appeal or writ of habeas corpus may be available.
