The vast majority of sex offense allegations arise in the context of family or other close relationships. Often, they arise in the context of a failed marriage, either before or during a divorce proceeding.
It is not uncommon for a bitter parent or ex-spouse to concoct allegations of child sexual abuse to gain an advantage in a custody fight. With a little coaching, and some rewards, a child can be taught to "remember" something that never happened.
And the case may well go to trial, even without any corroborating evidence or witnesses, because in Minnesota, a mere allegation of a sex crime, with nothing more as proof, is enough to go to trial.
In this situation, Mr. Holmstrom must bring all of his experience and knowledge to bear in your defense. He has years of experience working with DNA testing and forensic medical science. And he has honed the skill of effective cross-examination.
You have the right to a jury trial. Mr. Holmstrom has defended more than 135 cases through jury verdict. Few lawyers have that much experience. So much hinges on the relationship between the defense counsel and the jury. So much hinges on the final argument, when the defense lawyer has the opportunity to persuade the jury to view the case in a way favorable to the defendant.
That kind of skill only comes with experience. Mr. Holmstrom has over 35 years of that experience.
