GEORGIA SEX OFFENDER REGISTRY REMOVAL: KNOW THE DEFENDANT

It seems completely intuitive, but one of the most important things that any lawyer representing a defendant in the effort to be removed from the sex offender registry can do is to know the defendant.

• You are not re-litigating the original case, but you need to have an understanding of the facts that are the basis for the conviction of an offense that required sex offender registration.
• Know the time that has elapsed since the defendant completed his/her sentence.
• Know the defendant’s current family composition.
• Know how long the defendant has resided at his/her current address.
• Know the defendant’s employment history.
• Know how long the defendant has been at his/her current job.
