Saratoga Springs Probation Violations Attorney - What Can Be Done?
If you have been charged with violating your probation, the only fact that matters is whether or not you violated a condition of your release. Your past convictions should have no bearing on your current alleged probation violation. At the Saratoga Springs Law Offices of Gerard V. Amedio, we will protect your rights and help ensure your case is handled fairly.
If you have been charged with a probation violation, always talk to a criminal defense lawyer before you appear in Court. With serious potential consequences, you do not want to say anything that could weaken your case. In addition to going back to jail, you could face fines, community service, mandatory drug or alcohol counseling, or an extension of your probationary period.
