Probation Violation in Ohio

Contact a Youngstown Probation Violation Attorney Today!

Courts take probation violations seriously. When an individual is granted probation instead of jail time for a crime, the court is showing faith in your ability to stay out of further trouble with the law. A probation violation is similar to a violation of the court’s trust in you. At Hartwig Law LLC, we are ready to advocate for your rights to ensure that one violation or mistake doesn't end up costing you your freedom and future.

If you are being accused of violating probation, it is important to have an attorney review the details of your charges. We can work with probation officers to try to resolve the problem before it is brought to court and defend you during your hearing in front of a judge. Our attorney always has your best interests in mind when fighting your charges.

Penalties for Violating Probation

You will have to undergo a hearing with a judge to determine the merits of your alleged violation. If a court finds that you are guilty of violating your parole, they can modify the terms of your probation, revoke your probation, add additional charges, or subject you to the maximum sentence for your original offense.
