Common Probation Violations
Unfortunately, probation often subjects people to exceedingly strict terms that can be difficult to follow. While it is reasonable to order a probationer not to commit a repeat offense, many probationers have difficulty satisfying all the other terms such as paying fines, completing extensive community service, completing education such as DUI school, anger management classes or a shoplifting course, not missing meetings with the probation officer and attending all court dates. Whether you have been accused of failing a drug test or have been arrested for a new law violation, our attorneys may be able to help you resolve the situation without further incarceration.
In some cases, Mr. Shepard may be able to address a probation violation prior to the violation being filed with the court by contacting the probation officer directly to explain the circumstances surrounding the alleged violation. Other times it is necessary to go to court and present the case to the judge, challenging the evidence of the violation and seeking to have the violation dismissed and/or the client reinstated. One thing is certain, you can improve your chances of success by selecting an attorney with experience and knowledge in handling VOPs.
