Failure to Register as a Sex Offender

Lawyers at our Seattle-Tacoma criminal defense firm, the Law Offices of James Newton, PLLC, understand how difficult it can be to comply with complicated Washington State and federal sex offender registration laws. A juvenile who, on the advice of an attorney who may or may not have been well informed, pleads guilty to a sex charge will be required to register every address, every trip out of state, and every school attendance for a minimum of ten years. If the person fails to correctly register a final move, perhaps sending the letter of notification to the wrong office, the failure to comply with the sex offender registration law will be charged as an entirely new adult sex crime.
