Probation is a very common way to avoid having to go to jail. That does not mean it is an easy sentence. Probation officers can be tougher than you imagine and they can charge you for the smallest violations. Even the smallest violation of probation could result in jail time. You have to demonstrate that you can follow the orders of the judge, and an experienced defense lawyer can help you do that.

What to Expect from Your Violation of Probation Hearing

Your probation violation hearing will usually be in front of the same judge that sentenced you. The judge will not be happy that you are back and jail time may be a very real possibility. You want a lawyer who has integrity, court experience and experience handling probation violation cases. These hearings offer a different set of obstacles and options than criminal trials.

If a judge has given anyone the chance to avoid jail time by entering probation, he or she does not want to be proven wrong. For that reason, probation violators are more likely to face harsher consequences.
