Cape Cod Sex Crimes Lawyer
Cape Cod Sex Charge Defense Attorney
Sex crimes are among the most serious and aggressively prosecuted crimes on Cape Cod. The mere allegation of sexual misconduct can be enough to destroy your reputation, career, and relationships. If convicted, you could face a lengthy prison sentence, monetary fines, and life-long registration as a sex offender.
When there’s this much at stake, you can’t afford to settle for anything less than high-caliber legal defense representation. You need a tough advocate on your side — someone who will take the time to listen to your side of the story, examine the evidence, and exploit flaws in the prosecution’s case.
Thomas Kokonowski has a combined 40 years of experience fighting criminal charges in state and federal courts on Cape Cod. We know what it takes to secure case dismissals, charge reductions, and not guilty verdicts.

Legal Defenses in Sex Crime Cases On Cape Cod
Sex crime accusations generally stem from a he said/she said situation. Our job as your legal defense team is to discredit the alleged victim and build the credibility of your version of events. We can do this by showing that you were falsely accused either because the alleged victim was embarrassed or ashamed of engaging in the sex act; trying to extort money from you; seeking revenge or retaliation, or trying to gain the upper hand or leverage in a divorce or child custody case.
Other potential sex charge defenses on Cape Cod may include:
- You were misidentified or mistake for someone else;
- You have psychological issues which prevented you from understanding what you were doing;
- The sexual encounter was consensual;
- You used no threat or force;
- You were unaware of the age of the alleged victim;
- Physical evidence was obtained illegally and/or contaminated
