Orange County Kidnapping Defense Lawyers

Kidnapping is an offense that involves using force or threats to take a person and hold them against their will. Kidnapping may be classified as a federal offense, meaning that the FBI or other federal agencies may be involved in the investigation and prosecution of the case.

If convicted, a defendant accused of kidnapping in California may face up to 8 years in state prison. If a child is the victim, the kidnapping is carried out for ransom or to commit a sex crime, or if the victim suffers injury or death, the person accused of kidnapping may face up to life in prison or possibly the death penalty in some cases. Because the consequences of kidnapping allegations are so severe, it is of the utmost importance that you consult a criminal defense attorney as soon as possible.

Defense Attorneys for Kidnapping Charges in Orange County, CA

Defending kidnapping charges is certainly not easy, but it is possible with the right legal knowledge, experience and resources to put to work in building a case. Questioning all aspects of the charges and all grounds that the prosecution has built their case upon can do much to influence the jury, minimize penalties and possibly avoid a conviction altogether. For example, your attorney may be able to prove that the alleged victim actually gave consent and therefore that kidnapping did not occur. Whatever the particular circumstances of your case, however, it is important to talk to an attorney about your options.
