Jonah Dickstein represented me through the whole criminal process. He was always available to address my questions and concerns personally. His experience is apparent and he dealt with me in a straightforward manner (which I respect immensely). Mr Dickstein was able to get my charge dismissed!

I had a warrant that I didn't know about from 2018 for making a false police report. I was issued a warrant and didn't know about it because I had moved out of state and the detective was mad that they couldn't reach me. Mr.Dickstein was very up front and honest with me and gave me all of my optionsfor my case. He was very good with answering my calls and returning them. I was very pleased with him and he was able to get me the best outcome which was a diversion program, where I was able to walk a way with no record. His price was really good, I just had the best experience I could have asked for. I highly recommend Mr.Dickstein.

Robert and his staff have been nothing but professional and efficient! They will definitely show the experience they have. Prior to Robert sparks I had a console that in 3 years I wasn’t getting anywhere and going on 4 years of not seeing my son. As soon as I hired Robert Sparks he was able to not only get me quality time within 3 months, but within 6 months he got me a 50/50 time sharing even after many false allegations from mom to DCF about child abuse. Those allegations were dismissed within a day!! If you want a sharp aggressive lawyer but can also show empathy from you to the judge, then hire Robert Sparks attorneys!! THEY WILL GET RESULTS!

I hired Mark for my husband and let me tell you, he is darn good at what he does! Not only was Mark honest, but we always knew all the possibilities along the way of what could happen during the case. Don’t even get me going on Jeanette. She’s an absolute dream. She always answered my calls or texts.And not only is she good at her job too… she made it personal. She would ask how I’m doing and make sure I was okay every step of the way! If you want an aggressive attorney who’s honest and will get you the best outcome, HIRE Mark and his team !!! I promise they treat you as if you are their own family. I love the entire team! Thanks for representing my husband and getting us the absolute best outcome there ever could be !

Mark and his office saved my life. I had a very high profile case and the Government was hell bent on destroying my life and imprisoning me for a very long time. I was innocent and this was my first time being arrested. Before I hired Mark, The Government refused to give me bond and held me in jail for over two years. The jail treated me horribly and I was always in the hole. Before Mark I had four different lawyers representing me. I let go of them all because none of them fought for me, I was just another number to them. One lawyer only visited me once in six months, stayed three minutes, and didn’t know my name. Another lawyer refused to believe me and wanted me to take a plea to go to prison for ten years. Three months before my trial I hired Mark O’Brien and my life took a 180 for the best! Unlike every other attorney Mark and his team made sure to pick up the phone and answer all of my concerns. He visited me in jail consistently and he talked to the Warden multiple times on my behalf. I was treated with respect at the jail for the first time. The guards no longer harassed me because they knew Mark would step in. Mark and his team communicated with my family constantly. Mark made sure my suit went to the dry cleaners to assure I looked good every day in court. Mark only had a couple of weeks to prepare for trial he exposed every lie and trick the Government did against me and totally destroyed their case against me. I was released three months after hiring him, right before Christmas just like Mark said I would and spent it with my family. I was in jail for two and a half years due to bad representation. One of my previous attorneys event contacted me afterwards and said “I understand why you fired us, only Mark could have gotten you that kind of outcome.” Mark freed me and prepared housing for me until my family was able to pick me up. When the police heard I was released they were so upset and embarrassed, they tried to arrest me again ..twice, but Mark put a full stop to that and I’m free because of him today. Mark and his team are truly the best! Take it from me I have had many lawyers. Even though I was innocent the other lawyers were scared of how many resources the Government were using against me and didn’t want to do the work to get the job done right. Without Mark I would have went to prison for a very long time for something I didn’t do. He is simply the best and I know this because he helped so many other inmates in jail get justice as well. Federal inmates weren’t going home if they didn’t have Mark as a lawyer. I recommend him highly.

Anthony Rickman is truly the best in the business! He’s punctual, communicates effectively, and works tirelessly to get the job done. Highly recommend his services!

When you hire Anthony Rickman (and his firm)you feel like you're being represented by a good friend and that you're not just a client. I did not have representation initially not realizing my legal situation needed an attorney and not only an attorney a good one. Once I hired Anthony the slow legal process I was stuck in without his help, then moved swiftly and smoothly. The results he got on my charges were greater than expected. He made what seemed impossible, possible. Do yourself and your pocketbook a favor and call Anthony first. If you have spoken to other attorneys and still need representation, then call him next.

I HIGHLY recommend choosing Ben Stechschulte and Stechschulte Nell Law Firm for any criminal charges you are facing.
I have hired them twice within 2 years and it was worth every penny of their very reasonable fees.
Darci Banner, paralegal, is amazing at her job! She’s knowledgeable, kind, efficient, thorough, and responds promptly to calls/texts/emails. She helped me set up a payment plan to make hiring them a possibility for me financially. She is consistently pleasant, respectful, and patient. What an asset she is to the firm! Thank you again for everything Darci!
Ben works magic.
Plain and simple.
There are so many great things I want to say about him that I’m stumped, except to say that the outcome of my case yesterday was better than I could’ve dreamed of! Thank you again so much Ben! I can finally exhale a little bit.
I had been represented by a public defender who told me I was ‘100% going to jail and there were no further options to negotiate with the prosecutor. Click. See ya in court.’
I hired Ben to represent me in the last lap of this case, with little time to prepare (1 month). Not only am I, ever so gratefully, writing this review from my patio v. a jail cell…I was sentenced to time served and a small fine that was immediately paid off by my bond.
Ben is a brilliant attorney with a calming, pleasant affect, and perfectly professional. He put contingency plans in place so that even if the Judge denied his plea for my release, I would’ve had the option to do community service v. jail time. Always keeping in mind that a jail sentence would be devastating to me. My life is already a dumpster fire but I’m making every effort possible to clean up the mess I made, prevent a recurrence, and am making positive traction. That (and much more) would be lost, had I been incarcerated as promised by the PD.
Ben and Darci, in my opinion, went above and beyond the call of duty by recognizing my high stress level, and treating me with such kindness and generosity, offering much needed reassurance and peace of mind that I certainly DID have other options besides incarceration. They REALLY care! That’s hard to find these days.
I am deeply grateful to these wonderful people who have significantly impacted the trajectory of my life in a positive and seamless manner.
I also feel like I have 2 new friends in this crazy world! The personalized care and humanity I was shown cannot be purchased. It comes freely from truly GOOD people. These are good people.

5-Star Review for Victoria and Jeanette
I cannot thank Victoria and Jeanette enough for their outstanding support and professionalism throughout the entire process of having my case dismissed. Victoria, as my attorney, was incredibly efficient, knowledgeable, and quick to take action, guiding with clarity and confidence, ensuring that the process went as smoothly as possible.
Jeanette, her legal assistant, provided emotional support that truly made a difference during this time. She was patient, compassionate, and always available to answer my questions or provide reassurance when I needed it most - this made a tremendous impact on me.
Together, they made an intimidating situation feel manageable, and their teamwork was seamless. Thanks to their dedication, my record was dismissed faster than I expected, giving me peace of mind and a fresh start. I highly recommend Victoria and Jeanette to anyone in need of a skilled, time efficient, and empathetic legal team!

What a Sex Crime Lawyer Can Do for You
A sex crime lawyer specializes in defending individuals accused of sexual offenses, which can include charges such as sexual assault, rape, indecent exposure, child pornography, solicitation, and other related crimes. Being charged with a sex crime carries severe legal and social consequences, including potential imprisonment, mandatory registration as a sex offender, fines, and long-term stigma. A sex crime lawyer has the expertise to navigate the complex legal system, protect your rights, and develop a strategic defense to achieve the best possible outcome for your case.
When Should I Hire a Sex Crime Lawyer?
You should consider hiring a sex crime lawyer immediately if:
- You are under investigation: If law enforcement contacts you for questioning or you become aware that you are a suspect in a sex crime investigation, it's crucial to seek legal representation before speaking with authorities.
- You have been arrested or charged: Promptly hiring a lawyer upon arrest or formal charges allows for early intervention in your case, which can be critical for your defense.
- Searches and seizures have occurred: If your property, such as your home or electronic devices, has been searched or seized in connection with a sex crime investigation, a lawyer can help protect your rights.
- You are facing related legal issues: If you're dealing with restraining orders, custody disputes, or other legal matters stemming from the allegations, a lawyer can provide comprehensive legal support.
What Does a Sex Crime Lawyer Do?
A sex crime lawyer provides a range of legal services to defend and support you throughout the legal process:
- Legal consultation and advice: They will explain the charges against you, outline your rights, and advise you on the best course of action.
- Case investigation: The lawyer will conduct a thorough investigation, gathering evidence, interviewing witnesses, and identifying inconsistencies or weaknesses in the prosecution's case.
- Defense strategy development: They will develop a tailored defense strategy, which may include challenging the credibility of evidence, disputing the legality of how evidence was obtained, or presenting alternative explanations.
- Negotiating with prosecutors: Your lawyer can negotiate plea bargains or reduced charges when appropriate, aiming to minimize potential penalties.
- Court representation: They will represent you in all court proceedings, including hearings, trials, and sentencing, advocating on your behalf.
- Protecting your rights: The lawyer ensures that your constitutional rights are upheld throughout the legal process, including protection against unlawful searches, coerced confessions, or violations of due process.
- Post-trial assistance: If necessary, they can assist with appeals, sentence modifications, or matters related to sex offender registration.
How Are Sex Crime Lawyers Paid?
Sex crime lawyers typically charge for their services in one of the following ways:
- Hourly rate: Charging an hourly fee for the time spent working on your case. Rates can vary widely based on the lawyer's experience and location.
- Flat fee: A set amount that covers specific services or the entirety of your case, which can provide cost predictability.
- Retainer fee: An upfront payment from which the lawyer deducts hourly fees and expenses as they work on your case. You may need to replenish the retainer if it is exhausted.
- Payment plans: Some lawyers offer payment arrangements to make their services more affordable over time.
It's important to discuss payment structures and fees during your initial consultation to understand the financial commitment involved.
How Much Does a Sex Crime Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring a sex crime lawyer depends on various factors, including the complexity of the case, the severity of the charges, and the lawyer's experience. General cost estimates are:
- Hourly rates: Typically range from $200 to $500 or more per hour.
- Flat fees: For less complex cases, flat fees might range from $5,000 to $25,000.
- Total costs: Complex cases involving extensive investigation or a trial can cost $25,000 to $100,000 or more.
- Additional costs: May include expert witness fees, investigative expenses, and court fees.
Always request a detailed fee agreement and discuss potential additional costs to avoid unexpected expenses.

How to Check the Credibility of a Sex Crime Lawyer
- Verify their license: Ensure the lawyer is licensed and in good standing with your state's bar association.
- Experience and specialization: Look for a lawyer who specializes in criminal defense with a focus on sex crime cases.
- Client reviews and testimonials: Research online reviews or ask for references to learn about other clients' experiences.

What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To make the most of your initial meeting with a sex crime lawyer, bring the following:
- Detailed account of events: Write down everything you remember about the incident, including dates, times, locations, and any conversations.
-
Legal documents: Bring all documents related to your case, such as:
- Arrest records
- Charging documents
- Bail paperwork
- Search warrants
- Any correspondence from law enforcement or the court
- Witness information: Provide names and contact information of any potential witnesses who can support your defense.
- Evidence: Bring any physical evidence or records that may be relevant, such as emails, text messages, or social media interactions.
- List of questions: Prepare questions about your case, the legal process, and the lawyer's experience.
- Honesty: Be prepared to discuss all details openly and honestly; attorney-client privilege ensures confidentiality.
- Goals and objectives: Be clear about what you hope to achieve, whether it's dismissing charges, reducing penalties, or addressing registration as a sex offender.
By being thoroughly prepared, you enable the lawyer to assess your situation effectively and provide the best possible legal advice tailored to your case.
