Probation and parole violations occur when an individual fails to comply with the conditions set by the court or parole board. These conditions may include meeting regularly with a probation officer, maintaining employment, or avoiding further legal trouble. Violations can lead to serious consequences, including re-incarceration.
Our legal team works to assess each violation allegation carefully, identify possible defenses, and advocate for alternatives to incarceration when appropriate. We understand that each case is unique and requires a personalized approach.
A violation can be technical, such as missing a meeting with a probation officer, or substantive, such as committing a new crime. Both types of violations carry potential penalties. It is essential to have knowledgeable legal guidance to navigate these situations effectively.
The process typically begins with a hearing to determine whether a violation occurred. Evidence is presented, and the individual has the opportunity to contest the allegations. Legal representation during this process is critical to safeguarding your rights and seeking the best possible outcome.
