DUI Probation Violations

Georgia Probation Violation Defense Attorney

Probation violation charges must be taken seriously.  If the judge feels you have shown a lack of respect to the court for violating your probation, you could be put in jail and forced to serve the original sentence for the DUI charge.  In DUI cases, a first offense could mean up to a year in jail, as well as added time for violating probation.  These are critical matters that must be handled quickly by a Georgia probation violation defense attorney.  If the situation is not addressed quickly, you could be picked up by law enforcement and incarcerated at any time whether at work, home, or during a traffic stop.  At the Law Offices of Richard S. Lawson, the legal team is very familiar with probation violations and the various actions that must be taken to help their clients avoid jail.

Probation Violation Defense Lawyer in Georgia

There are multiple actions that could lead to probation violation charges.  For example, if you fail to pay a fine on time, complete your mandatory community service, fail to complete the risk reduction program ordered by the court, or if you have been picked up for another offense, it is likely that a probation violation charge will be filed against you. 

If you have been charged with a probation violation, a defense attorney at the Law Offices of Richard S. Lawson can work to quickly resolve the issue in an effort to avoid further damage.  In other cases, such as if you have been arrested for another crime while on probation for DUI, the situation will be more complex.  In either case, you can trust the legal team at the firm to competently address your charges with the court and take appropriate course of action.
