Accused of a probation violation?
It's time to talk to a lawyer. Call Sussman & LeBoeuf, LLC.
When you are arrested for a criminal offense, you are considered innocent until proven guilty. After a probation violation, you do not enjoy that presumption of innocence. You have already been convicted of a crime. The only question is whether you have violated the conditions of your probation.

Our criminal defense attorneys provide aggressive legal representation to clients who have been accused of probation violations.
Because probation is typically granted as an alternative to incarceration in a state prison, a probation violation puts your freedom at risk.
At Sussman & LeBoeuf, we fight to protect you. Our goal is to keep you out of state prison. We will carefully study the facts of the case and create a strategy to achieve the best possible outcome given the situation.
Conditions of probation can take many forms. They may involve paying fines, participating in community service, maintaining employment, remaining drug free, meeting regularly with your parole officer and avoiding another arrest.
Defending Against the Accusation
We may question whether you were truly in violation of the conditions of your probation. Can being 15 minutes late for a meeting with your probation officer be considered failure to appear? We may argue that you were largely in compliance with the conditions.
If we are unable to defend the accusation of a probation violation, we may argue that the conditions are excessively restrictive and petition the court for a modification. We may suggest alternatives, such as payment of fines or participation in counseling or treatment programs or community service.
If this petition is denied, we will negotiate to lessen the ultimate sentence.
In addition to probation violation defense, our attorneys also defend clients who are facing parole revocation after release from prison.
