In many cases, the court grants probation in lieu of serving a prison sentence. In order to avoid the jail sentence, the individual must comply with the terms of probation. If these terms are violated, the court may attempt to impose the original sentence on the individual.
Types of Probation Violations
In many cases, the individual was unable to report to his or her probation officer due to extenuating circumstances.
- Administrative errors,
- a drug test failure,
- being arrested and charged with another offense,
- failing to pay fines on time,
- failing to complete court-mandated treatment programs while on probation
or other situations can lead to charges of violating probation.
What are the Penalties for Violating Your Probation?
Anyone charged with a probation violation is in danger of losing certain rights and their freedom. If you are found guilty of a probation violation, the court may punish you severely and you may be forced to serve the sentence you avoided by going on probation, with added time for the violation.
If the individual is found to have violated his or her probation terms, a warrant will be issued with their name on it. There are still many effective tools available to you that you can utilize to greatly lessen your chances of serving jail time for your violation. It is urgent to get defense counsel immediately, preferably before being picked up by law enforcement and incarcerated.
Defenses for Probation Violations
In such cases, it is imperative that you have someone at your side fighting to keep you out of jail. Severe illness and other issues arise in life and you should not have to go to jail because you were genuinely unable to report.

"I can honestly say I was not disappointed."
I took a trip out to TN and got in to some trouble in Clarksville and needed representation for a case while I was I back in my home state. I went to Grimes, Sensing & Clemons feeling distraught and like I had no hope, seeking a solid defense attorney that would actually fight for my case and get me the best possible deal. I left feeling comfortable and confident. I can honestly say I was not disappointed, the only time I needed to come back to TN was for the sentencing(mind you cases may differ) and unbelievably Jeffery Grimes was able to pull a rabbit out of a hat and get a felony charge reduced to a misdemeanor as well as talk down the court fines... I strongly suggest Jeffery Grimes as your defense attorney for any legal issues you may have, also their fees are very reasonable and they will do payment plans. Thank you very much Grimes, Sensing and Clemons.

"The outcome for my request was better than I could have hoped for."
I hired Mr Sensing to assist me with the modification of a parenting plan that just wasn’t working anymore. I hired another lawyer in the Clarksville area that did not do their due diligence. Mr Sensing and his team were great throughout the process. Emails and phone calls were actually returned in a timely manner! Which wasn’t the case with the lawyer I used before. I had access to all my court documents and was always kept informed on what was going on with my case. Lastly Mr Sensing is very experienced and knowledgeable in his field. The outcome for my request was better than I could have hoped for, and I honestly feel like that was due to Mr Sensing.

"Best defense lawyer you could ask for."
Grimes is the best defense lawyer you could ask for. He was able to take what would generally be a felony for sure and get it down to a misdemeanor and a fine. If you have him as your lawyer, you won't have anything to worry about.
