False Allegations of Child Sex Abuse

There are many reasons a false allegation of child sex abuse may be made. Negative attitudes about someone, suggestive questioning of the child and outright coaching can be behind these charges. Distinguishing valid allegations from false allegations can be very difficult unless your attorney has the experience and training to spot these issues and expose them.

An allegation may be false but the accuser may still believe it is true. A child can often be convinced they experienced something which did not happen. By nature, children are susceptible to suggestions by authority figures and can even come to believe that those things happened when they did not. We work with experts in false memory, coaching, and child interviewing to get at the reason these accusations are made and the reason the child has come to believe those allegations.
