Probation Violations

Criminal Defendants who violate their probation terms can face harsh punishments, ranging from jail time to fees and fines to an extension of the duration of supervised probation. There are direct consequences and penalties that the court can impose, as well as the indirect toll that these additional penalties can have on your life, future, and freedom. The probation revocation attorneys at Haltzman Law Firm, with offices in Fort Collins and Winter Park, can help you understand the ramifications of your probation violation charges and build an effective legal case for you.

Probation Violations

If the judge who hears your case agrees that a “preponderance of the evidence” suggests that you violated the terms and conditions of your probation, you may face punishments. Fort Collins probation violations include: failing a mandated drug test, leaving the jurisdiction of the court without permission, possessing a firearm, or exiting a rehabilitation or mental health treatment facility without permission.

Punishments Can Include

Revocation of your probation and sending to jail
Extending the length and restrictiveness of your probation
Tacking on additional penalties, such as community service requirements and probation officer check-ins
Further restricting your freedom of movement – for instance, you may be constrained to house detention
Limiting the contact you may have with certain family members or victims
Mandating that you attend a live-in rehabilitation facility.
Increase in fines and fees
Longer or additional education classes and community service
Other restrictions or penalties that the judge can impose based on the nature of your violation, your past criminal history, your tendency towards repeat criminal behavior, and other factors

If you are facing a potential probation revocation you can take steps to get out of worsening situation. Our Fort Collins and Winter Park probation revocation attorneys will guide you through the process from beginning to end. Call Haltzman Law Firm at (970) 692-3440 today.

“Matt was amazing! When I hired him I was in a pretty bad situation. He took care of everything, I continued with my life and knew that he was working hard to sort it out. Long story short. In less than a month everything was sorted out. Couldn’t ask for more. Good guy with great efficiency. Thank you, keep up the awesome practice.”

“The way Matthew handled my case was truly impressive. He’s a true strategist, tactician and advocate. He consulted with me on every legal move and had ideas that I would have never thought of. Matthew was very knowledgeable and shared his expertise upfront in the process regarding my case. He set proper expectations and provided excellent advice along the way. Matthew knows the court system very well and is an excellent communicator. I would venture to guess he’s the best lawyer in Northern Colorado and one of the only Super Lawyers who practices PI and Criminal Defense in Colorado.”

The Best Attorney
“I’m so glad we found Matt Haltzman to take care of our case. He was so easy to work with, kind, and really listened to us. It was such a pleasure working with him. He was so professional and all my worries were gone. I had complete faith in him and he got our entire case dismissed. It would have been devastating to us had he not been such a great lawyer. We barely had to do anything, one meeting and one court appearance and the whole thing was thrown out. I would recommend him to anyone. He worked really hard for us. He is very bright and excellent at what he does. Thank you Matt! You truly saved us.”
