Probation Defense Attorney in Lawrenceville

Question: My son is on probation until september. in september when he gets off this one a new one starts for a year. he failed a drug screen and they are going to jail him and revoce his probation. Will that be just till this one ends in september or will it be for the one he is waiting on to start as well?

Answer: With just the limited info you have provided, I suspect that his probation that has not begun will also be revoked (an anticipatory revocation), because he has proven that he is nto a good candidate for probation.

About Me

I hung a shingle in February 2000, because I saw that individuals charged with criminal offenses were being underserved by the attorneys practicing criminal law. Since February 2000, I have represented more than two thousand criminal clients. I only practice criminal law, but I do everything from violations of probation to Supreme Court appeals. There are few attorneys under the age of sixty that have my level of experience. I have tried more than two hundred major felony jury trials. I have tried more than fifty misdemeanor jury trials. In Philadelphia as a prosecutor, I tried more than two thousand bench trials. I have conducted more than three thousand preliminary hearings and bond hearings. Yet, I still have the energy at forty-five to serve my current clients. There is nothing that will occur in a courtroom that I have not experienced before. When you are looking for an attorney, experience is everything.
