Frequently Asked Questions
How will you protect my privacy after a sexual assault accusation?
We treat your privacy as a top priority. Client conversations with our team are confidential, and only essential staff access your information. In court and with prosecutors, we use protocols that protect sensitive details wherever possible. We work to limit unnecessary disclosures and offer advice on handling media or public attention. If there is potential for public record or news interest, we counsel you on the steps to safeguard your identity. Our focus is always on defending your rights and your privacy.
How does Attorney McCall's experience as a former prosecutor help my case?
Attorney Christopher McCall’s background as a prosecutor provides your defense with real advantages. He understands how Peoria prosecutors assemble and present evidence, and can anticipate which tactics they may use. This perspective informs both negotiation and trial strategies, ensuring your defense addresses weaknesses in the case against you. Clients benefit from having a legal advocate with unique insight into prosecution methods in local courts.
Will a sexual assault charge impact my family or job?
A sexual assault accusation has the potential to affect your home and employment life. We advise on potential outcomes and protections, including tips for handling workplace questions, addressing family dynamics, or navigating visitation or school issues. If circumstances arise, such as background checks or housing complications, we help you prepare and respond to limit negative effects where possible. Our guidance considers the broader impacts, so you have a plan for every part of your life.
Can we meet privately before I decide to hire you?
Yes, you can schedule a confidential consultation with our team. This is a commitment-free meeting where you can discuss your concerns, ask questions, and learn how we approach your defense. There is no pressure to retain us, and everything you share stays private. Our goal is to give you the clarity and comfort needed to make the best choice for your defense.
What outcomes can I realistically expect?
Every sexual assault case in Peoria is unique. Outcomes depend on factors like the available evidence, the specific details of the allegations, your history, and decisions by prosecutors, judges, or juries. We provide honest, realistic assessments based on experience, but we do not make promises we cannot control. Some cases resolve through negotiations, while others may go to trial. Our duty is to explain your options, keep you informed, and pursue the best possible result for you.
