PROBATION VIOLATION

Protection of Your Rights and Freedoms

A sentence of probation often comes with wide-ranging terms, conditions and requirements. Many people charged with a violation of probation are shocked that what may seem to be a minor or “technical” issue — such as failure to pay a fine on time or missing an appointment — can have serious consequences.

Assessing Your Risks and Targeting Positive Outcomes

Mistakes are part of life for both private citizens and officials throughout the justice system. Our attorneys will focus on explaining your potential consequences and finding constructive ways to protect what is most important to you.

It is important to recognize that any probation violation can be very serious. Accepting consequences without consulting a skilled attorney could be life changing. Depending on exact circumstances, you could find yourself:

• Sentenced to penalties up to the maximum for your original offense, sometimes including jail or prison time

• Subject to new, harsher restrictions that infringe on your job status or ability to meet family obligations
