Sexual offenses are classified as high-impact crimes within the Mexican criminal justice system. They are considered particularly sensitive due to their social gravity, the psychological harm they may cause, and the fact that, once the Public Prosecutor’s Office (Fiscalía) becomes aware of a potential commission of such an offense, it is legally required to investigate ex officio, without the complainant’s consent to continue the process.
This means that even if the person who initially made a statement later recants or elects not to pursue the accusation, the prosecuting authority is not legally empowered to abandon either the investigation or the criminal proceedings. As a result, the accused must face an investigation and, in many cases, a criminal trial, with no possibility of termination at the will of the accusing party.
At Justicia Transparente, we recognize that in some cases complaints may be false or driven by other interests. We therefore provide a technical, strategic defense that strictly respects due process, focused on protecting the accused’s rights from the very first procedural act. A single misstep—an ill-advised statement or a poorly framed legal strategy—can lead to years of imprisonment and a permanent criminal record.
These matters require experience, sensitivity, and a deep command of the law and of the adversarial (accusatory) criminal justice system. Sexual offenses are among our strongest areas of specialization. We offer an effective defense grounded in ethics, professionalism, and an unwavering commitment to truth and justice.
