Probation is an adjunct or alternative to a prison or jail sentence. This can allow defendants to avoid incarceration through finishing a probation requirement. This gives people the chance to return to their community in a supervised way. Probation differs from parole, which is a conditional release from prison after fulfilling a part or the entirety of the sentence. If you need a legal team to help you retain your freedom, please contact our Minneapolis, MN probation violation lawyer as soon as possible.

Do not risk your personal freedom by attempting to defend yourself alone. We are ready to come to your side and offer representation now.
Alternatives To Jail
If you violate your probation, that does not automatically mean that you are going to jail or prison. We can negotiate alternatives to incarceration, such as participation in alcohol treatment or substance abuse programs, extension of probation, community service, and counseling. We can assess the severity and nature of the violation. Depending on the situation, we could argue that you had engaged in significant compliance with your sentence, or assure the court that you will comply with the terms of your remaining sentence. Please do not put your liberty at risk. If you were accused of violating the terms of an informal or formal probation program, you must have a legal team advocating for your interests. To get into the specifics of your case and receive guidance, contact our team right away.
Probation Violations
If you do not abide by every aspect of your probation restrictions or parole, you could face an immediate revocation of these terms. This may not just cause a loss of freedom, but new charges against you. More restrictions may be imposed on you, based on the extent of your violation. There may also be new charges being brought up against you that could cause your freedom to be limited even further. If you need assistance regarding any of the following, we strongly recommend contacting our dedicated probation violation attorney for support:
- Parole violations
- Probation violations
- Post Release Community Supervision violations
- Summary probation violations
- Formal probation violations
