Protect Your Rights After a Probation Violation
A probation violation can be a serious offense with lasting consequences, regardless of your underlying charge. If you have been arrested or charged with a probation violation, it is important to seek experienced legal counsel as soon as possible to protect your rights. At Gary W. Wiessner Law Office in Howard County, Maryland, I provide informed advocacy and aggressive defense to disprove an underlying violation involved in a probation defense.
Forward-Looking Investigations in Your Defense
The evidence weighing against you will be critical in proving a violation in your case. Even if you have committed a violation, there may be circumstances that serve as a legitimate defense. I will take the time to review the facts and evidence in your case. I will also consult with experts, assess physical evidence, examine police reports and aggressively challenge the case presented against you. As your lawyer, my goal is to minimize the impact of any allegations against you to prevent additional charges and penalties, including jail time.
I am an experienced Columbia parole violation attorney experienced with cases involving:
- Failure to remain in contact with a probation or parole officer
- Failure to take a drug or alcohol test
- Failure to complete community service hours
- Failure to pay fines or restitution
- Violation of probation hearing
- Committing an additional crime or violation
Protect Your Rights Against the State
If you have been arrested or there is a warrant for your arrest, you need experienced counsel and defense as soon as possible. I will make appropriate motions to revoke your probation, parole or release. Remember that the state does not have the same burden of proof in a probation matter. Rather than exceed the standard of "reasonable doubt," the state would need only to prove your case upon consideration of the evidence, a lower standard requiring less convincing evidence.
You need an experienced attorney who can aggressively defend your rights and ensure that you do not face additional consequences and penalties.
