Facing Criminal Sexual Assault Charges? Chicago Defense Lawyer Andrew M. Weisberg Can Help
If you’ve been charged with criminal sexual assault in Illinois, you’re facing one of the most serious accusations under the law—commonly known as rape. The penalties for a conviction are severe, with little to no chance of probation. Instead, a conviction could result in a prison sentence of up to 15 years. Beyond incarceration, the lifelong stigma of being labeled a sexual offender—a rapist—can follow you in every aspect of your life. Given these overwhelming consequences, it is crucial to have a skilled criminal defense attorney like Andrew M. Weisberg on your side. Andrew brings an aggressive and strategic approach to criminal sexual assault cases, aimed at securing the best possible outcome for you.

Criminal sexual assault charges are particularly serious because they often imply the use of force or authority over the victim. While physical strength is a common interpretation, criminal sexual assault can also involve a position of power, such as a teacher-student, employer-employee, or therapist-client relationship.
