Criminal Defense Attorneys - Violation of Probation

Probation Violation Defense Attorney in Titusville, Cocoa Beach, Viera, Pt. St. John, Palm Bay and Melbourne, Brevard County Florida

Probation Violation Defense Lawyer in Titusville & Melbourne, FL

Probation and Community Control are alternatives to incarceration. A person placed on probation or community control must comply with the court’s sentencing order. These conditions may include: drug testing, community service, classes, fines, and fees. Failure to comply with a court order may be grounds for a warrant for your arrest.

For a violation of probation or community control to occur, the court must find a willful and material violation of a probationary sentence. If convicted of a violation of probation or community control, the court has many sentencing options including the maximum sentence for the underlying offense. At a probation violation hearing, you are not entitled to a jury trial. Additionally, the standard of proof at a hearing is a preponderance of the evidence (a standard significantly less than “beyond a reasonable doubt.”)
