Sexual Assault Lawyer Santa Monica, CA
Sexual assault charges impact your life in all aspects, including how your friends, coworkers, and even strangers on the street see you. Our criminal defense lawyers protect you. We advocate for you in court, advise you on reputation management, and shield you when you’re questioned by the police and prosecutor. Our decades of combined experience and deep knowledge of California criminal statutes benefit you, our client.
Our Santa Monica sexual assault lawyer collaborates with private investigators who can help build a case proving your innocence. At the same time, we review and question every piece of evidence the prosecution has against you. If the police violated your rights, we see it and address it in court, filing a motion to have the tainted evidence excluded from consideration.
It’s not uncommon for sexual assault cases to have little tangible evidence; instead, many rely on victim accounts and testimony. In this gray area lies a lot of room to maneuver. We know what’s at stake for you, and the penalties that can be assessed if you’re found guilty. We critique testimony against you, question the credibility of witnesses, and counter with our own arguments in your defense. You deserve to be treated fairly throughout the criminal justice process and to be viewed as innocent unless you are proven guilty.
Our goal is to get you free of these charges and clear your reputation, so you can rebuild your life and move forward. We seek the best outcome for your case, which may include negotiating a plea deal on your behalf, seeking probation instead of jail time, and fighting against enhanced sentencing assessments.

Types Of Sexual Assault Defense Cases We Handle

Allegations Involving Someone Known To The Accused
Many sexual assault accusations arise from interactions between people who already know each other. These may include dating partners, former partners, friends, coworkers, or acquaintances. Disputes often center on consent, communication, or differing recollections of events. We defend clients by closely reviewing messages, timelines, witness statements, and other available evidence to present a full and accurate account of what occurred.
Workplace Sexual Assault Accusations
Accusations made in the workplace can place a person’s career and professional standing at risk. These cases may involve claims made by coworkers, subordinates, or clients and often overlap with internal investigations or employment actions. We represent individuals accused of misconduct at work and address both the legal claim and its potential employment consequences. Our team includes Alec Rose, who is a California Criminal Law Specialist with over 30 years of experience.
Cases Arising From College Or University Settings
Sexual assault accusations on college campuses often move quickly and involve school disciplinary proceedings alongside potential legal action. Students accused of misconduct may face suspension, expulsion, or permanent academic records. We defend individuals accused in campus-related cases and help them respond to allegations while protecting their educational and legal interests. These cases frequently involve witness credibility and procedural fairness. During our decades of working with clients, we’ve represented several students and professors, and as a small, boutique law firm, clients benefit from personalized assistance and direct contact with our attorneys.
Claims Involving Public Or Social Settings
Some accusations arise from encounters in social environments such as parties, bars, rideshare vehicles, or other public settings. Alcohol, limited witnesses, and conflicting statements are common factors in these cases. We represent clients accused in these situations by examining surveillance footage, digital records, and witness accounts to challenge unsupported or inconsistent claims. Each detail matters when reputations are on the line.
Historical Or Delayed Accusations
Not all accusations are reported immediately. Some cases involve allegations made months or years after the alleged incident. These cases can be difficult due to limited physical evidence and fading memories. We defend clients facing delayed accusations by evaluating the timing of the claim, potential motives, and available documentation. We provide a steady approach focused on facts and fairness.
If you are facing an accusation and are considering speaking with a sexual assault lawyer Santa Monica individuals rely on for defense representation, we are prepared to talk with you. We can review your situation, explain what to expect, and discuss possible next steps. Contact us today at the Law Office of Alec Rose PC to work with our Santa Monica sexual assault lawyer!
