Probation Violation Attorney in Hartford

Representation From a Criminal Defense Lawyer

Probation is a privilege that is granted to some convicted criminals to allow them to serve a portion of their sentence in the community with regular check-ins to a probationary officer rather than in jail or prison. If you are granted the privilege of probation, then it is important that you abide by all of the regulations placed upon you to avoid further complications that may increase your risk of receiving an extended sentence or serving the remainder of your sentence in jail.

These rules and regulations may include:

• Refraining from alcohol and drug consumption
• Reporting to a probationary officer regularly
• Reporting any moves or address changes
• Avoiding contact with victims or other persons identified in a "no contact" order
• Refraining from carrying or purchasing a firearm

When you are on probation, you must abide by all terms of your probation. If you abide by these terms and remain in contact with a probation officer, then you may be able to serve your sentence and be released in a timely fashion; however, with so many rules and regulations to consider when on probation, some individuals may slip up. When a violation happens, you need to work with a Hartford criminal attorney who can help defend you against extended or increased sentencing. When you work with Carlson & Dumeer, LLC, we will ensure that you receive a favorable outcome for your case.
