Wallin & Klarich Sex Crime Department

What You Need to Know About Sex Crimes

Wallin & Klarich have been assisting persons charged with sex crimes for over 30 years. During that time, we have become very familiar with many sex crime issues that arise. Over the years we have practiced law and with the advent of the internet, additional laws and regulations have been passed. Wallin & Klarich has always kept up to date with recent laws regarding sex crimes in California. Not only has Wallin & Klarich sucessfully represented persons charged with sex crimes at the trial level, we also assist those already convicted of sex crimes in order to attempt to: 1) appeal there sentence, 2) reduce there conviction from a felony to a misdemeanor, or 3) help them stop registering as a sex offender. The following is a brief outline of the areas of law that we cover when dealing with sex crime registration.

1. Exclusion From Internet Disclosure

If you have previously been convicted of certain sex crimes in California, you may have to register pursuant to California Penal Code section 290. If so, your name and photograph may also be posted on a web site for sex offenders which is commonly known as Megan's Law. Wallin & Klarich have been assisting many convicted sex offenders from removing there name and photograph from the Megan's Law interent website. We deal directly with the Attorney General of California seeking exclusion from internet disclosure. If sucessful, your name and photograph will be removed from the website and thus avoid the embarrassment and shame of having a neighbor or an employer find it. You can contact our office if you or a loved one is in this situation.

2. Certificate of Rehabilitation and Governor's Pardon

Once a person is required to register as a sex offender in California, that obligation is for life. However, California law allows people to be removed from the sex registration list. Wallin & Klarich has represented many registered sex offenders in order to absolve there obligation from registering. Depending on the person's residency and the type of sex crime they were convicted of, that person may be able to sucessfully petition the court for a Certificate of Rehabilitation. If granted, this could absolve one's obligation from registering as a sex offender. (depending on the type of sex crime they were convicted of). Certain sex offenders may not qualify for a Certificate of Rehabilitation, but may qualify for a Governor's Pardon. Wallin & Klarich can assist you in evaluating your particular situation and determine how to best proceed on your case.
