Helping Clients Accused of Probation Violations
Going through the process of an arrest, conviction and jail time is not something you would like to revisit. Probation often follows, requiring you to adhere to certain rules. Not living up to the expectations placed upon you results in probation violations. A simple misunderstanding or being arrested on a new criminal charge could lead to serious consequences.
At Graves & Spivey, P.A., we encourage our Lake County and Sumter County clients to contact us immediately if they have violated their probation. A proactive approach can mean the difference between staying free with certain limitations or returning to jail.
Don't panic. Contact us at 352-508-1186 to discuss your legal options.
Probation Violations Could Result in Additional Jail Time
A probation violation subjects the violator to the original maximum sentence they once faced. If you find yourself in trouble with the law again or have failed a drug test, you could be charged with a new offense along with your violation of probation. You could be held in jail with no chance of bond.
Providing You With Legal Options
At Graves & Spivey, P.A., we know that a criminal defense attorney cannot guarantee that you will not go to jail or prison. However, we will always fight for the best outcome. Our understanding of the Lake County and Sumter County court system is one of the strengths of our practice and a benefit to our clients. We work with local prosecutors and judges on a daily basis. We use that insight to work toward the best outcome for your probation violation, whether that means reinstatement of supervision, house arrest, a suspended sentence or a limited period of incarceration.
Don't run and hide. That makes a bad situation worse. Bring an advocate on your side now, rather than later.
