Defending a Man Wrongly Accused of Rape
“I realized this guy is innocent,” said criminal defense attorney Jonathan W. McConnell. “He wanted someone to fight for him because he was innocent!”
In January 2015, Jon met a man wrongly accused of rape. Jon spent the next year heavily investigating the case, using private investigators, medical experts, and even an anonymous letter to form a defense that resulted in the dismissal of charges.
“Had I been dependent on a public defender, there’s zero doubt in my mind that I’d be in prison right now,” said Saber Hossinei. “Jon cares so much. He’s not my friend; he’s my big brother.”

What to Expect
Request A ConsultationFree Introductory Phone Call
A receptionist or legal assistant will gather information about your case. This usually takes about a half-hour.
If your case is within the type of law we practice, we can schedule a free office or phone consultation with one of our sex crimes attorneys. If not, we will do our best to refer you to a law firm that can help.
Information-Gathering
We may need some additional information before your free consultation. We’ll ask for that during or after the initial phone call. It will be your task to gather this information, which will help us when it comes time to research the specific laws that may apply to your case.
Free Consultation
You will consult with a sex crimes attorney for about an hour. You can get to know the attorney and see if they’re a good fit for you.
The attorney will share their analysis of your case and recommend next steps. They will also let you know about anything else we need to get started.
A free consultation does not create an attorney-client relationship. Our firm must have a signed agreement to represent you.
We Get to Work
If you decide to hire us, we will enter into a signed contract. You will make your payment for our services.
Once these steps are complete, we can officially represent you as your legal team. We will inform you about the status of your case every step of the way.

We can help with an appeal.
The McConnell Law Firm fights tirelessly to win appeals for criminal or civil cases.
Sex Crimes FAQ
Here are answers to some of the questions our sex crimes attorneys hear most often.
This is general information only. For questions about a specific case, you should talk with a knowledgeable sex crime attorney. Every case is different, and what applies to 99 situations out of 100 might not apply to yours. You deserve the answers you need to make the best possible decision.
Request a Free ConsultationIf convicted of a sex crime, it will be your duty to register as a sex offender with the state you reside in. In Kansas, you must report in person to the registering law enforcement agency within three days when beginning, changing, or ending a residence, employment, or school.
The length of registration may be for a specified term or an indefinite period, depending on the circumstances of your case and the conviction received. Registration periods range from 15 years to 25 years to life.
If you are found not guilty or had the case dismissed, there will not be a conviction on your criminal record.
Unfortunately, you may still face social consequences from being accused. Contacting an experienced sex crimes attorney as soon as possible gives you the best chance of keeping your record and reputation clean.
From a legal standpoint, a conviction can result in high fines, prison time, and the requirement to register as a sex offender. From a social standpoint, sexual allegations can impact your business, your ability to work, and your relationships.
Yes. If you are charged with a sex crime, the court will set a bond amount that allows you to remain out of jail until trial if you have the financial means to do so. The judge presiding over the case sets the bond amount based on their risk assessment.
More serious or high-profile cases typically have higher bond amounts than less severe ones.
You should at least consult with a sex crimes attorney immediately after a false accusation. At the McConnell Law Firm, this consultation is free. The attorney can look at the specifics of your situation and help you determine if and when you need legal representation.
While our team at the McConnell Law Firm encourages you to contact an experienced attorney at the beginning of a criminal investigation, we can also assist once the prosecutor has already filed charges.
