Los Angeles Sex Offender Registration Attorneys

Sex Offender Registration

After being convicted of almost any sex crime in California, it is mandatory that you register as a sex offender within a certain period following your release from custody. You must also then register at certain intervals every year and any time that you change residences or your name. There are also certain registration requirements that are triggered if you are convicted of certain types of sex crimes. Some of the offenses which require registration as a sex offender include the following, child molestation, lewd conduct, sodomy of a minor, oral copulation with a minor, sex with a minor, lewd conduct with a minor, child pornography and other similar charges. While most registered sex offenders appear online on a public database, not every individual who is required to register will be listed online. At the exclusively-criminal defense firm of Kestenbaum, Eisner & Gorin, we strive to avoid having our clients plead to charges which require sex offender registration, but even if you have already been convicted of such a crime which requires you to register, our attorneys can help you if you are being accused of failing to register.

Sex offender registration has been implemented in California since 1947 while many states did not begin doing this until the 1990's and because of this, California has the highest number of registered sex offenders in the nation. At our firm, we understand the social stigma associated with having to register as a sex offender and will treat you with sensitivity and discreteness. With many years of experience, our attorneys know the ins and outs of sex offender registration laws and procedures and we can help you, regardless of what your issue is.
