Registration and Internet Problems
If you have to register pursuant to PC 290 and/or are on the Internet you should call us for a free consultation with an attorney. We will not take your case if we do not believe we can help you. Although there are many people for whom relief is not possible, many others can be assisted in meaningful ways. We have helped numerous people who had no idea that anything could be done for them.
Issues We Review
- Termination of PC 290 Registrations. This is now possible in 90% of cases. If your obligation to register is terminated you will also be removed from the internet.
- Inaccurate data on the Internet. This is common and usually easy to correct. We obtain the court documents and work with the Department of Justice to amend the information on the website.
- Removal from the Internet. Many people qualify for exclusion but are nonetheless listed on the web. The best cases for removal concern people who received probation for nonviolent crimes with family members or who no longer need to register. The burden is on the individual to prove he/she should be excluded. In some cases there is considerable difficulty in obtaining records and our assistance is invaluable. We have had great success removing people from the Internet.
- Constitutional issues. These are cases that test the law: We look for significant issues that provide an opportunity to file writs and legal challenges to existing laws.
- Other assistance. This ranges from people who have issues regarding factual innocence to those who want to relocate and need information regarding the laws in different states. We are also available to help when individuals are affected by new legislation such as Jessica's Law. Pardons, sealing records, reducing charges to misdemeanors and other remedies are sometimes possible.
Payment and Fees
The State Bar does not allow nonrefundable retainers. Therefore we charge only for the amount of time used and for costs. Unused money is refunded. If the work necessary to complete the case exceeds the retainer, you will be advised and your approval obtained prior to any other charges being incurred.
Civil Rights and Discrimination Lawsuits
There are tough laws to protect PC 290 registrants from the discrimination, harassment and other civil rights violations. We sue people and companies that violate Megan's Law and we do it on a straight contingency. You pay nothing unless we recover money for you.
These are solid lawsuits that can result in large recoveries and help stop people from illegally using information obtained from the public Internet. In addition to damages you may recover attorney fees and punitive damages and obtain injunctive relief. If you have been harassed or in any manner discriminated against you need to call us.
If you are fired because someone saw you on the Internet, we want your case. If someone maliciously spreads out flyers in your neighborhood, we want your case. When your presence on the Internet causes your civil rights to be violated, we want to hear from you.
You have nothing to lose by calling us. If we take your case you pay nothing out of your pocket. We will pay all costs and handle all your legal work and will be paid only if we win.
