False Allegations Of Child Sexual Abuse

This site provides help with false child abuse allegations, accusations of sexual abuse, molestation, and incest often seen in divorce litigation and criminal trials. It is designed to help those falsely accused and attorneys who are representing the falsely accused.

Child abuse in general, and child sexual abuse in particular, are serious criminal allegations. Abuse accusations that are falsely made require that attorneys and clients be able to expose the false abuse allegations quickly and efficiently.  Sometimes during divorce litigation, molestation charges are made to gain advantage in child custody disputes.  Falsely accused of child molestation or incest, the accused must counter the testimony of protective caseworkers, Child Protective Services (CPS), and often, privately retained expert witnesses.

This site is brought to you as a public service of Nichols Consulting, a national consulting firm exclusively assisting those falsely accused.  Edward Nichols, a professional social worker, psychotherapist, and founder of Nichols Consulting, wrote False Allegations Of Child Sexual Abuse: The Attorney's Desk Reference in 1994.  Following its review by the Family Law Reporter, [11-1-94 p.1012], this volume has been credited with assisting in the effective and efficient exposition of false, and often malicious, allegations of child sexual abuse nationally.  Already in its third printing, False Allegations Of Child Sexual Abuse: Attorney & Client Desk Reference is now available exclusively through this Web site.

This Web site presents several components of defending against false allegations of child sexual abuse that anyone in such a position should know. Moreover, it will be particularly helpful to the attorney representing the falsely accused, mental health professionals involved in these cases, and perhaps most importantly -- the falsely accused. While this information is not legal advice, the author, as a recognized expert in the area, is presenting material which, in his experience, is associated with the efficient defense against false allegations of child sexual abuse -- whether in the earliest stages, or in a domestic or criminal court action.  By following the links on the bottom of each page, you will be able to access valuable information on all phases of defending against false allegations.
