Frequently Asked Questions

Get Answers Now

  • Questions

  • What if I thought the sex was consensual?

    Answer

    At Law Office of Cynthia Mendoza, we understand that many rape cases have “he said, she said” types of allegations that are often thrown around. Unfortunately, these misguided motivations can be ruinous for your reputation and your future. We can investigate all avenues to help bolster your side of the story and use mutual consent as a defense strategy.

  • Should I take the offered plea bargain?

    Answer

    Because every case is different and requires a careful examination of all circumstantial issues involved in the case, we would highly advise that you speak with an attorney before agreeing to any type of deal. Though you may think you are doing yourself a favor by complying with police officers or prosecutors, you could actually be jeopardizing your rights and your freedoms. We can assess your case so you fully understand if a plea bargain is in your best interests and if the consequences match the nature of the crime.

  • Will I have to have to register as a sex offender?

    Answer

    If you have been convicted of a sex crime in your state, you will more than likely have to register with your local law enforcement agency. Your registration will most likely have to take place immediately after your release from jail or custody. If the court required that you register, they will notify the agency that will monitor your compliance with the laws. Courts will also require that you update your information every year and report any recent moves or other events such as employment changes.

  • Should I talk to the police about my version of events?

    Answer

    Absolutely not. If you have been taken into custody, or if you think you have been targeted as the center of an investigation, it is important that you remain silent. You have the right to assert your silence when asked questions by police or investigators. This means any verbal or written statements regarding the events in question should not be made without the presence of your attorney.

  • Possible Case Outcomes

    Charges Reduced

    Most sex crimes are considered to be felony offenses. We work hard to reduce the charge to a lesser degree, such as a misdemeanor.

  • Possible Case Outcomes

    Plea Bargain

    It is our primary goal to help make sure our clients secure the best possible outcome, even if this means negotiating with prosecutors.

  • Possible Case Outcomes

    Case Dismissed

    We fight tirelessly to secure complete case dismissal so you can walk away from a serious criminal allegation with a clean slate.
