Sexual Assault Defense Lawyer in Torrance, CA
Defense Strategies for Both State & Federal Cases
An allegation of sexual assault can threaten nearly every aspect of your life long before your case reaches a courtroom. Within hours, your professional reputation, business relationships, security clearance, occupational license, and personal privacy may all come under intense scrutiny.
For many individuals, the consequences often extend far beyond the criminal justice system. Government investigators move quickly to collect digital communications, execute search warrants, interview witnesses, and build a case that can alter the course of your future. We handle cases for a broad spectrum of defendants, including executives, physicians, attorneys, financial professionals, entrepreneurs, and all others.
When so much is at stake, you need more than routine criminal defense. You need experienced counsel who can respond immediately, protect your constitutional rights, and develop a sophisticated strategy from the earliest stages of an investigation.
Law Office of Parag Agrawal provides discreet, concierge-level representation for clients facing highly sensitive allegations. Drawing on experience across three agencies as a former sex crimes prosecutor, Attorney Agrawal knows how complex investigations are developed, how charging decisions are made, and where opportunities exist to challenge the government's case before it gains momentum.
You can discuss your case with a Torrance sexual assault defense lawyer by messaging our firm online or calling (213) 652-6904. We offer both in-office and virtual complimentary consultations—available 24/7.
Strategic Defense for High-Stakes Sexual Assault Investigations
Every sexual assault investigation presents unique legal and factual issues. Our defense begins with an independent evaluation of the government's evidence, including:
- Witness statements
- Digital communications
- Surveillance footage
- Forensic testing
- Electronic devices
- Investigative procedures
We carefully examine whether investigators complied with constitutional requirements, whether the evidence was lawfully obtained, and whether the prosecution can establish every element of the alleged offense beyond a reasonable doubt.
Where appropriate, we engage forensic specialists, scrutinize scientific evidence, and present information that places the allegations in their proper context. Throughout the process, we remain committed to protecting not only your legal interests but also your privacy, professional standing, and long-term future.

Sexual Assault Cases We Defend in Southern California
Although the phrase "sexual assault" is commonly used by the public and the media, it is not a single criminal offense under California law.
Instead, it describes a broad category of allegations that may include charges such as:
- Rape
- Sexual battery
- Assault with intent to commit a sexual offense
- Unlawful sexual conduct with a minor
- Lewd acts involving a child
Each offense has distinct legal elements, evidentiary requirements, and potential penalties, making a careful analysis of the specific allegations essential to an effective defense.
Many cases involve complex factual disputes concerning consent, identity, credibility, intoxication, digital communications, or forensic evidence. Others arise from delayed reporting, misunderstandings, or incomplete investigations.
Because these allegations often involve sensitive personal relationships and limited physical evidence, every statement made to investigators and every strategic decision made early in the case can significantly influence the outcome.

And you’re facing a system that feels impossibly stacked against you. As a former prosecutor, Parag knows the system and fights for what matters most:Your Freedom, Your Future, Your Reputation.
The Long-Term Consequences of a Conviction
A conviction for certain California sex offenses may carry severe consequences beyond incarceration or financial penalties.
Depending on the offense, an individual may face mandatory sex offender registration under California's Penal Code § 290, restrictions affecting employment and professional licensing, immigration consequences, and lasting reputational harm.
These collateral consequences require a defense strategy that looks beyond the immediate criminal proceedings to protect your career, your family, and your future.
