Being labeled a sex offender happens as soon as you are charged with the offense.  During every step of the process, a defendant needs to be fully aware of his rights and of the many consequences of being convicted of a sex crime.

Many convicted sex offenders are either sentenced to long terms of incarceration or are subjected to inhibiting probation conditions.  They are subjected to random “registration checks” and searches, are forced to participate in Sex Offender Treatment, and are restricted in where they can travel, work and/or live.

Being classified as a registered sex offender can mean decades of yearly (if not monthly) registration requirements, as well as the possibility of one’s personal information being posted on the Internet for all to see.  In Rhode Island, the offender gets one chance to challenge his or her classification level, which means that the offender should do everything in his or her power to fight to keep the level low.  In Massachusetts, the offender can move to reduce his or her classification level after three years of registering, and can ask to stop registering after ten years.

In every stage of a defendant’s criminal case and a convicted sex offender’s classification process, an experienced, dedicated attorney can make all the difference in the world.  Learn more about the process by clicking our Sex Crimes Defense, Sex Offender Registration and Massachusetts SORB pages.
