San Antonio Sex Crimes Attorney

Trusted Legal Representation By Criminal Defense Attorney

Sex Crimes Attorney Representation

Texas justice has always been tough, but recent changes have made it brutally tough for individuals charged with sex crimes, especially those committed against kids. Our criminal defense attorney, provides legal representation for sex crimes cases.

 

Increased sentences, stacked sentences, no probation, no parole, little sentencing discretion left to judges, and juries terrified by horrific news stories all make being charged with a sex crime in Texas a true nightmare. Even low level offenders can be branded a "sex offender" and carry the stigma for life. While murders routinely receive between 20 and 50 years in prison and are parole eligible, sex offenders often receive multiple stacked life sentences and will never see the light outside a Texas prison.

​

  • Extensive legal experience

  • Larry Bloomquist is Board Certified in Criminal Law by Texas Board of Legal Specialization

  • Personal attention throughout the entire case
