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.
There Are Many Ways You Can Get Help from a Sex Defense Lawyer in San Diego County CA
There is no such thing as a cookie-cutter defense to these types of accusations. You need to hire a Sex Defense Lawyer in San Diego County CA who will look at your specific case, examine the evidence, and give you the best possible strategy for your case.
How can we provide this? Because we have been doing so for decades. We know the rules of evidence and we know how forensic analysis of DNA, hair, fibers, and other evidence can impact the case. We know how to challenge these and other types of evidence. We generally start by looking at the case to show that there is not enough evidence to convict you. If you have already been charged, we will work to convince the D.A. to drop the charges. If you have not yet been charged, we will work to prevent charges from ever being filed.
In the event that there is a mountain of evidence against you, we may try to prove that it does not present the image that the prosecution claims it does. We may, for example, prove that you did have sexual relations with the accuser, but that it was fully consensual.
On the other hand, it might be best to work with the D.A. to get you the best possible plea deal. Our goal is to ensure the most lenient consequences. Ideally, we can have the charges reduced to the point that you will not be required to register as a sex offender.
