Oregon law provides an avenue for relief for some convicted sex offenders so that they no longer are required by law to register as a sex offender. The benefits of obtaining such relief can be enormous. As it now stands, anyone can request and receive a list of sex offenders in their neighborhood, or they can make a specific inquiry with the State Police about a particular individual. Employers, neighbors, co-workers and others frequently obtain such information and use it to the serious disadvantage of the registered sex offender.
Even if you were convicted of a sex crime in another state and moved to Oregon you are most likely required to register in Oregon. The good news is, you may also be eligible for relief from registration by going through the Oregon courts regardless of where your conviction occurred or what the laws concerning such relief may be in the state of conviction.
Obtaining relief from the sex offender registration requirement is not automatic. The laws in this area are complex, and it will be highly advisable for you to obtain the services of an experienced attorney if you want to succeed in getting relief from the sex offender registration requirement.
