New York Sex Offender Registration Act:

Since 1996, New York State has implemented the Sex Offender Registration Act, or SORA. SORA demands that any defendant who is on parole, probation, or is incarcerated for a sexual offense as of January 21, 1996 must register with the Division of Criminal Justice Services. This registered information is available to the public for inspection. This means that neighbors, future employers, future landlords and even friends and family will have access to this information. Failure to register when required to do so is also a criminal offense.

At Mazzei & Polk, LLC we have the experience you need to challenge the District Attorney and to fight for your rights. Call us today for a consultation: (516) 461-3148.
