Crime Victims' Rights

If you have been the victim of a crime, whether the case proceeds in state or federal court, the law affords you rights that exist independently of the prosecution itself — among them, the right to be treated with dignity and respect for your privacy, to be notified of and heard at key proceedings, to be reasonably protected from the accused, and to receive restitution. If you believe your rights have not been respected in an ongoing criminal case, Lexa can represent your interests as the victim within that proceeding.

Alongside the criminal case, you may also have grounds to pursue a civil remedy of your own. With her years of experience as both a county prosecutor and a civil litigator, Lexa is uniquely equipped to guide victims through one of the most difficult chapters of their lives while pursuing the full compensation they are owed.
