Pinellas County Probation Violation Attorneys
Criminal Defense Lawyers in Clearwater, Florida
Although preferable to jail time, probation can be difficult. There are numerous restrictions and requirements that you must meet in order to stay within the terms of your probation agreement, and even a single violation could land you in jail, facing criminal penalties for the offense that you were on probation for in the first place. Some examples of probation violations include: failure to report to your probation officer, drug or alcohol abuse, an arrest, committing a crime, violating a restraining order, failure to appear in court, failure to pay a fine, and association with known criminals. There may be other types of violations depending upon the terms of your probation.
