Kidnapping

Have you been charged with kidnapping? Alejo Lugo will fight for you.

Kidnapping is a serious offense carrying many harsh penalties including up to 8 years in prison just for a “simple” kidnapping. You could face even harsher penalties including life in prison if you are accused of aggravated kidnapping, making a ransom demand, allegedly taking a child under 14 years, causing serious injury or death to the victim, or violating certain other laws related to kidnapping.

At the Law Offices of Alejo Lugo & Associates, we know that the stakes in a kidnapping case are high. You can rely on us to treat your case as a priority, leaving no stone unturned in our efforts to prevent a conviction.

Let Us Build the Strongest Possible Defense For You

Research and investigation is essential for winning kidnapping cases. As your kidnapping defense attorney, we will go wherever the evidence takes us when crafting your defense strategy.

Often, our first task is making sure the prosecution really does have enough evidence to convict. In order to secure a conviction, the prosecution must prove beyond a doubt that the victim of the alleged kidnapping was moved a substantial distance against their will, using force or fear. If we are able to show that the victim gave their consent to being moved, or that the distance they were moved was not “substantial,” the prosecution’s case may fall apart. We will also explore other options for your defense, such as mistaken identity or false accusations.

Our knowledge and experience in kidnapping law is up-to-date and extensive. As your kidnapping defense attorney, we will work relentlessly to uncover evidence for your defense and fight for your rights till the very end.
