Allegations of Child Sexual Abuse

 Illinois Child Sexual Abuse Attorney

When allegations of child sexual abuse are made, it is imperative that steps be taken immediately to disprove those charges and prepare for trial. If proven, such allegations may result in being listed as a sexual offender on the Illinois Child Abuse and Neglect Tracking System (CANTS) for up to 50 years and/ require registration as a sexual offender, either of which results could severely impact your ability to retain or obtain employment in any occupation involving working with children. For example, a registered sex offender or one who has an indicated report for sexual abuse could never work as a nurse, day care provider, teacher or member of many other professions.

Mr. Daniel B. Kennedy has more than 15 years of experience defending clients who have been alleged to have sexually abused a child. He has successfully defended such charges in criminal and civil cases and before administrative agencies such as the Administrative Hearing Unit of the Illinois Department of Children and Family Services in appeals from indicated reports of abuse. Mr. Kennedy uses a multi-disciplinary approach to such allegations which may utilize psychological evaluations, forensic linguistics experts and other methods to disprove false allegations.

Mr. Kennedy has also given seminars throughout Illinois to churches on proven methods to avoid allegations of child sexual abuse and is available to give such classes to any group or institution whose employees or volunteers come into contact with children as a part of their duties.
