Sexual Offences

Sexual Grooming

Engaging in behaviour that could be construed as sexual grooming is a serious sexual offence. If you are being questioned by police about this type of offence, it is really important that you have proper representation by a solicitor who has knowledge and experience in this area of criminal law. As this is a serious offence involving minors, the penalties can be steep.  If you are being questioned about sexual grooming offences you should get advice as soon as possible from a solicitor. Everyone, regardless of their financial circumstances, is entitled to receive free legal advice and representation from a solicitor of their choice whilst they are being questioned at a police station. If you need representation, you can call 0333 009 6275 and we’ll help you wherever you are in England and Wales with our Sexual Assault Solicitors.

What Can We Do To Help You?
