Violation of Probation (VOPs)

Overcome a Violation of Probation Charge

People accused of probation or parole violation may be terrified of going to jail. The reality is that jail does not help anyone, and judges and prosecutors know that. The challenge in situations involving probation violation cases is that the standards of evidence are lower than the standards in a regular criminal defense matter.

If you have been charged with a probation violation, you need to get in touch with a lawyer quickly to help you avoid potential negative consequences. The law office of Jerome M. Capone has helped hundreds of clients overcome violation of probation matters through carefully considered representation on your behalf.

What Are the Mitigating Circumstances?

A key factor in probation violations are the mitigating circumstances surrounding a violation of your probation conditions. We help the judge see you are a whole person, not just a file of a person who has allegedly broken a rule.

We Help Judges See You as a Whole Person, Not a Rule Breaker

Have you been following all the other rules and procedures of your probation agreement? Was there a hardship that you faced that made it impossible to honor all your agreements? Was there a lapse in procedure on the part of the probation officials? Did you even understand that the rule you broke was a violation of your probation? Is your probation officer being unreasonable? These are the kinds of issues that we consider as we work with you throughout the entirety of your legal situation.
