Learn About California’s Sex Offender Registry Requirements
In the event you are convicted of a sex crime in California, the penalties could include jail or prison time, hefty fines, and years of strict probation. Unfortunately, even if you fulfill those requirements, most sex crime convictions also come with the requirement to register with the state as a sex offender. Failing to do so could send you back to jail. When you register, the public will have access to your name, address, and picture.
A Sex Defense Lawyer in Laguna Beach CA Can Help You in Many Ways
There is no cookie-cutter defense argument to these charges. You need a Sex Defense Lawyer in Laguna Beach CA who will take the time to examine the evidence and provide a careful, considered defense strategy for your particular case.
How can we make this happen? Because we’ve been doing it for a long time. We understand the laws of evidence and how forensic examination of DNA, hair, fibers, and other evidence may influence the outcome of a case. We understand how to refute these and other forms of proof. We usually begin by reviewing the case to demonstrate that there is insufficient evidence to condemn you. If you’ve already been accused, we’ll try to persuade the prosecutor to dismiss the charges. If you haven’t been charged yet, we’ll seek to keep charges from being brought against you.
If there is a lot of evidence, we could try to illustrate why it doesn’t prove what the prosecution claims it does. For example, if you had consenting intercourse with the putative victim, we can strive to establish this.
Another goal can be to find the best possible plea deal we can get for you. We will try to reduce the consequences as much as possible – including attempts to have the charges reduced to no longer trigger the requirement to register as a sex offender.
