The law governing sexual contact between people is amongst some of the most complicated areas of criminal law in England and Wales. Notwithstanding the fact that the legislation in this area has undergone substantial reform, the current rules regarding “consent” and sexual offences are not well understood.
For both the Complainant and the Accused/Defendant, the prospect of being involved in what will often be a long period of questioning and investigation by the police and prosecuting authorities is likely to be distressing. Alleged criminal conduct involving sexual contact is also particularly challenging for the Courts to handle. These cases often involve sensitive and highly emotive circumstances, which must be investigated in a calm and judicious manner.
