Our Line of Defense
Focused on Winning Your Case, and Nothing Else
Supportive and Constructive Sex Crime Defense Lawyers
We Provide Proactive Defense Strategies to Protect Your Future
Another legal area we focus on here at our Cincinnati criminal defense law firm is sex crimes. Our nation is incredibly sensitive to any sex crime allegations and the accused are often hit with negative stigma and a biased light that shines not in their favor. Our attorneys believe that this “judge first, try second” mentality towards sex offenders is unjust, tipping the legal system unfairly and ignoring much of our country’s own principles.
With thorough investigations and by working closely with our clients, we have discovered that many sex crime allegations are based on clear exaggerations, muddled misunderstandings, or, worst of all, completely falsified claims. This ties back to our ability to give you prearrest representation. If you suspect that someone is going to accuse you of a sex crime, regardless of how much evidence there may or may not be, you should talk to us right away. With us by your side from the moment the police arrive at your door, you can feel confident that your future is bright and that your chances of securing a beneficial outcome are high.

- Criminal Defense that Never Quits
At Bleile & Dawson, we know that there is no one way to win a criminal defense case, and that every moment counts when it comes to crafting your defense. This does not only include what happens in the jailhouse or the courtroom; acting quickly can mean successfully preventing your arrest from every occurring. We have taken up an intentional focus on prearrest cases, providing proactive defense strategies that not many other defense firms in the country can offer. Benefits of a successful case with prearrest representation include no arrest on your criminal record; saves you time spent in county jail; eliminates costly court fees; and fast resolution – no stress!
Here are several benefits of hiring our Cincinnati criminal lawyers:
- We offer experienced guidance and advice to help reduce or eliminate possible penalties
- We can accurately assess the strength of a prosecution’s case, advise on legal strategy, evaluate plea bargain offers and represent clients in court
- We are well versed in the laws surrounding your particular offense in order to determine the best possible defense for your case
- We provide you with an understanding of your rights and guide you through the entire legal process from start to finish
- We can act as a buffer between their clients and law enforcement, allowing us to protect our clients’ best interests at all times
- We have relationships with prosecutors that could be beneficial for those facing serious charges such as mitigating potential sentences or dropping certain charges altogether
- We are not afraid to go to trial to obtain the best possible outcome in your case
We feel it is important to encourage this sort of legal advocacy, not only because it allows our clients a simpler way to handle criminal violation accusations but also because not many people in Ohio even know this is an option. If you were to believe the criminal justice system or law enforcement agencies, you would always have to wait for handcuffs to be placed on your wrists before seeking legal assistance. This is simply not the case and it is to your benefit, and the opposition’s disadvantage, for you to make the first move.
