Common Types of False Allegations
False claims are often made by someone who is close you, whether it’s a current or former spouse, dating partner, family member, neighbor, or disgruntled employee or coworker. These allegations are made for various reasons.
Common examples of false allegations include:
- Retaliation – For instance, a soon-to-be-ex spouse claims that you committed sexual assault to gain leverage in divorce or child custody proceedings.
- Embarrassment – Commonly known as “buyer’s remorse,” the accuser may have initially consented to sex, but later regretted their actions. Out of embarrassment or shame, they may claim that you committed a sex crime.
- Mistaken identity – Since sex crimes typically occur in dimly lit locations or involve intoxication from alcohol or drugs, it is easy for someone to genuinely believe you are the alleged offender, despite their mistake.
If your accuser has a specific motive, the allegations against you will be viewed as illegitimate by the court. Your attorney can gather the evidence from cellphone records and eyewitness accounts, determine the facts of the case, and build a strong and effective defense strategy to help you avoid being charged.

Lyle has been a godsend for my mother's case. He actually cares and takes his time to understand all of the facts before leaning into the prosecution relentlessly. He's been a light in the dark guiding us through this seemingly impossible situation we are trying to navigate. Going from hopeless, to possible, to plausible . He's quick witted, hungry, and knows his $hit cold. Honestly without him we would've had no chance and I'd Hire him 1000 times over. Thank you Lyle- A.D.
