California Parole and Probation Violations Attorney
Los Angeles, San Bernardino, Riverside and Orange County
You're out of jail on parole, or you avoided jail by being placed on probation, but now you find yourself charged with violating probation or parole and you're facing more time behind bars.
Probation violation or parole violation does not automatically mean a jail sentence. With the help of an experienced California parole violation attorney, you can make a case for your own defense.
Failure to comply with any of the terms of your probation or parole will bring you back before the court for a revocation hearing.
- Failure to report for mandatory drug testing?
- Failed a drug test?
- Failure to check in with your parole officer or probation officer?
- Failed to report for community service or to complete your community service sentence?
All of these, and more, could land you behind bars. But there may be extenuating circumstances that contributed to your failure to comply with probation or parole. You have a right to bring evidence to your probation revocation hearing to prove those extenuating circumstances (such as ill health), or to defend against charges that are being made against you.
As your California probation violation lawyer, it's my role to prepare a strong defense, presenting evidence and witnesses to bolster your case for why you should remain on probation or parole.
Guilty of a violation despite your extenuating circumstances? I may be able to help you get an alternative sentence rather than jail time.
Don't fail to appear for your probation violation or parole violation hearing. That will lead to a bench warrant for your arrest. Talk to me, a California probation violation lawyer with more than 31 years of experience. Contact my office for a free initial consultation.
