Las Vegas Probation Violations Defense Attorneys
Have you been arrested for a Nevada probation violation in Las Vegas or elsewhere in the state?
Then let our Clark County criminal defense lawyers help you through this tricky hurdle. Charges of Las Vegas probation violations are actually very common, and we’ve enjoyed great success in getting these matters resolved favorably.
Probation is a sentence that a Clark County judge imposes instead of incarceration. Many Nevada misdemeanors and some felonies are "probationable," meaning that anyone convicted of one may be sentenced to probation in lieu of going to jail or prison. (Probation is different from parole, which a judge may grant when the person is already in jail.)
Nevada judges may demand that people on probation abide by certain conditions such as keeping a curfew, staying employed, not possessing firearms, living in a certain area, keeping in touch with their probation officer, or remaining within the jurisdiction. Being charged with a Las Vegas probation violation in Nevada can potentially result in very serious penalties.
In many cases people on probation in Clark County are falsely accused of violating the terms, or else their mistake was so minor (such as being cited for jaywalking) that it's simply unjust for them to be incarcerated because of it. It's important that anyone arrested for a Las Vegas probation violation have good Nevada legal counsel to defend their rights.
