New Jersey Sex Offender Registry: A Lawyer Assisting Convicted Sex Offenders
Being convicted of a sex offense can have a serious impact on your life, career and family:
- Sex offender registration: A convicted sex offender may be required to register as a sex offender with local authorities, and have their photograph and certain personal information appear on the internet.
- Living restrictions: Significant restrictions may be placed on where the sex offender can live or move.
- Parole: Convicted persons may be subject to lifetime supervision by a parole officer. They may be required to submit to random polygraphs, urine testing, or home or computer searches.
- Prison: A prison sentence can condemn the person to continuous harassment and attacks by other prisoners.

Mr. Friedman frequently advises such clients on a range of issues, often resulting from a violation of the terms or conditions of their supervision.

Motions for Removal from Lifetime Community Supervision or Parole Supervision
Mr. Friedman also represents clients on motions for removal from CSL (community supervision for life) or PSL (parole supervision for life). He is knowledgeable about the requirements for removal from supervision. Considerable time must have elapsed since the conviction. There must be no subsequent convictions on any offense. If there are any issues that suggest the defendant should not be removed from supervision, attorney Friedman makes sure that any mitigating circumstances are brought before the court.
Tier Reduction Can Have a Positive Impact on the Status of Sex Offenders
Mr. Friedman also advocates for clients seeking a reduction in their tier level. This can significantly help people who face spot checks by parole officers, random polygraphs and restrictions on where they can live. Mr. Friedman understands the prerequisites for successfully petitioning to have a person's tier reduced.
