Sexual Assault Defense Lawyer in Hawaii (Honolulu Cases)

An Accusation Is Not a Conviction

We know what a serious charge like this brings—fear, confusion, and often a rush to judgment. But every person accused of sexual assault in Hawaii has rights, including the presumption of innocence. Jason is a Honolulu sexual assault defense attorney with experience navigating these highly sensitive cases. His role is to protect your legal interests, challenge unreliable evidence, and ensure your voice is heard in a system that can quickly become one-sided.

What Counts as Sexual Assault in Hawaii?

Hawaii law covers a wide range of sex offenses. Each comes with severe penalties and long-term consequences:

• First- & Second-Degree Sexual Assault – Often tied to force, coercion, or lack of consent.
  
  
• Third-Degree Sexual Assault or Sexual Contact – Includes unwanted touching or acts without explicit consent.
  
  
• Statutory Rape (Sex with a Minor) – Consent is not a defense if the alleged victim is below the legal age.
  
  
• Indecent Exposure or Sexual Misconduct – Misdemeanor charges with serious reputation impact.
  
  
• Sexual Abuse Allegations in Domestic Settings – Often paired with restraining orders or family law disputes.
  
  

Each of these charges has specific legal standards, and Jason understands how to break them down and build a case for dismissal, acquittal, or reduction.

How We Defend You Against Sex Crime Charges

Sexual assault cases often hinge on complex issues like consent, credibility, and forensic evidence. Jason tailors each defense to the facts—never using a cookie-cutter strategy. His approach includes:

• Investigating the background and motive behind the accusation
  
  
• Reviewing digital evidence (texts, calls, social media)
  
  
• Consulting experts on DNA or toxicology
  
  
• Highlighting inconsistencies in the alleged victim’s account
  
  
• Asserting violations of your constitutional rights, if applicable
  
  
• Preparing for trial with the assumption that every case could be won
  
  

In false allegation cases—especially in custody disputes or social fallout situations—Jason focuses on exposing the truth with professionalism and precision.

What to Expect From the Legal Process in Hawaii

Being charged with a sex offense in Hawaii means navigating a fast-moving and high-stakes process:

• Arrest & Bail – You may be arrested based on a complaint alone. Bail hearings follow quickly.
  
  
• Investigation & Charging – Law enforcement and prosecutors review evidence, sometimes without input from the accused.
  
  
• Court Appearances – Jason represents clients from arraignment through trial, advocating at every stage.
  
  
• Privacy Concerns – Media exposure, public records, and social backlash are real concerns. We work to limit your exposure and manage your reputation throughout.
  
  

Jason keeps you informed at every turn—so you’re never guessing what comes next.
