Accused of Violating Probation in New York
One of the many situations that call for the skills of an attorney following a conviction is a violation of probation. There are often many requirements placed upon individuals who are on probation, and it is important to always meet these requirements. However, we all make mistakes, unexpected circumstances do arise, and sometimes these demands get violated.
Common probation violations include:
- Missed meetings with a probation officer
- Missed court dates
- Failure to pay fines or restitution
- Failure to attend counseling
- Failing a drug test
Failure to keep one or more of these requirements could result in fines, incarceration, or extended probation. To make matters worse, if someone commits a crime while they are on probation, then they are facing both a new criminal charge as well as a probation violation. If this happens to you, you need the help of a knowledgeable attorney who is committed to fighting for you.
