Sergio Couto Junior | Advogado Especialista em Crimes Sexuais

São Paulo, Brazil

Advogado Especialista em Crimes Sexuais. I am a criminal defense attorney specializing in sexual offense cases, representing individuals accused of rape, statutory rape (rape of a vulnerable person), sexual assault, and other alleged sexual crimes.

Attorney specializing in rape defense. Attorney specializing in statutory rape defense (rape of a vulnerable person). Legal representation in cases involving false accusations of rape, statutory rape, sexual harassment, sexual assault, and other alleged sexual offenses.

I served as a Police Investigator with the Civil Police of the State of São Paulo for 11 years. After resigning from that position, I dedicated my professional career entirely to criminal defense, focusing specifically on representing individuals accused of sexual offenses.

During my tenure in police investigations, I directly participated in numerous investigative procedures involving allegations of this nature. This experience allowed me to understand, from within the criminal justice system itself, the evidentiary weaknesses that often arise in these types of investigations and, above all, the significant number of individuals who end up being prosecuted—and sometimes imprisoned—without the benefit of truly specialized legal defense.

Based on this experience, I directed my entire legal career toward the exclusive defense of individuals accused of crimes against sexual dignity. Currently, my practice focuses exclusively on cases involving allegations of rape, statutory rape (rape of a vulnerable person), sexual harassment, and workplace sexual harassment.

This work is supported by nearly two decades of in-depth study of the subject, the production of legal research and scholarly work, and practical experience accumulated through participation in more than 3,000 police investigations and criminal proceedings related to sexual offenses.

This professional trajectory—combining investigative experience within law enforcement and technical expertise in criminal defense practice—provides a comprehensive understanding of how investigations and prosecutions in sexual offense cases operate, enabling the development of highly specialized defense strategies.

Fui Investigador de Polícia da Polícia Civil do Estado de São Paulo por 11 anos. Após pedir exoneração do cargo, passei a dedicar integralmente minha atuação profissional à advocacia criminal voltada à defesa de pessoas acusadas de crimes sexuais.

Durante o período em que atuei na investigação policial, participei diretamente de inúmeros procedimentos envolvendo acusações dessa natureza. Essa experiência permitiu compreender, de dentro do sistema de persecução penal, as fragilidades probatórias que frequentemente permeiam esse tipo de investigação e, sobretudo, a quantidade de pessoas que acabam sendo processadas — e, por vezes, presas — sem uma defesa técnica verdadeiramente especializada.

A partir dessa constatação, passei a direcionar toda a minha carreira jurídica para a defesa exclusiva de acusados em crimes contra a dignidade sexual. Atualmente, atuamos exclusivamente em casos envolvendo acusações de estupro, estupro de vulnerável, importunação sexual e assédio sexual.

Essa atuação é sustentada por quase duas décadas de estudo aprofundado do tema, produção de trabalhos e pesquisas jurídicas, além da experiência prática acumulada em mais de 3 mil inquéritos policiais e processos criminais relacionados a crimes sexuais.

Essa trajetória — que reúne experiência investigativa dentro da polícia e atuação técnica na advocacia criminal — permite uma compreensão completa do funcionamento das investigações e dos processos envolvendo crimes sexuais, possibilitando o desenvolvimento de estratégias de defesa altamente especializadas.
