At Okabe & Haushalter we provide aggressive defense of clients charged with possession of child porn. We are former prosecutors skilled at anticipating moves by the state and taking appropriate action. We employ all defenses on behalf of our clients. We challenge illegal searches in violation of our client's constitutional rights. Where our client simply received unsolicited porn in the mail, we raise a defense based on lack of criminal intent. We also call into question whether images were pornographic but rather for artistic or scientific purposes. Regarding some images, we question the age of the subject or indeed whether it is of a real person at all and not computer-generated. We have a strong record of results. We urge you to contact us for a confidential consultation with a child pornography attorney.
