PROBATION VIOLATION

Have you been charged with a Probation Violation?

Violation of your probation is a very serious offense and must be handled carefully by an experienced attorney. Violating any of the terms or conditions of your probation can result in additional penalties, including jail time. It is critical to have an attorney on your side familiar with the local practice, judges and prosecutors in the city, county or township where you have been charged.

The Crosland Law Group, LLC are located in Stamford and have spent their careers practicing law in Connecticut. So if you have been charged with a Probation Violation, contact us immediately so that we can help get you the best possible outcome for your case.

Probation Violation Lawyer

In order to successfully defend against a violation of probation charge, your criminal defense attorney has to first thoroughly evaluate you — the defendant — and your particular situation. The nature of your probation violation will determine the defense strategy. For example, a failed drug screen could mean that a client is dealing with addiction and an alternative option to jail time could be proposed to the court involving drug and alcohol counseling.

Seek immediate representation from an experienced defense attorney

At The Crosland Law Group, LLC, we have the experience and compassion our clients need to determine what it is in their life that led them to violate the terms of their probation knowing that there will be consequences. Be it addiction, family conflict, financial trouble or otherwise, we will work diligently to explain any and all mitigating circumstances to the court toward minimizing any possible penalties.

You can discuss the details of your case with our attorneys so we can determine the best course of action necessary to successfully defend your probation violation.

What Should You Do Next?

  1. Call us immediately so that you can have an experienced Attorney on your side or email us with your questions or concerns.

  2. Don’t talk about your situation with anybody until you have had the opportunity to discuss it with your Attorney. It is usually best to make no statement and sign nothing! At some point the police may ask you to come into the station and give a statement. You may believe this is your chance to tell your side of the story. For any individual under investigation for or charged with a serious criminal offense, this is a perilous time.

  3. Instead of talking to the police, consult with a criminal defense attorney. Your consultation is free. If you then hire our firm, your lawyer can intercede on your behalf and talk to the detectives. This is a great way to get valuable information and may result in charges not being filed. Most importantly, doing so will keep you from giving a statement that might ultimately be used against you. Rest assured, it is likely that the District Attorney will use any statement you make at trial. Statements you make innocently on your own behalf can result in damage as well.

It is also helpful for you to put together any papers related to the case; create a list of potential witnesses; and compile documentation of your good character. All of these things will help your Attorney construct your best defense. The sooner an experienced Attorney is on your case, the better chance you have of obtaining a favorable result.
