Violation of Probation

Tampa Criminal Defense Lawyer
Experienced in Violation of Probation Cases

If you violate your probation (VOP) in the state of Florida you have committed a serious offense. Most courts look at probation as a substitute for jail and reason that if you cannot successfully comply with probation, you should spend your time in jail instead. Furthermore, the state must only prove that you violated your probation by a preponderance of evidence instead of the much more difficult standard of beyond a reasonable doubt. As you can see being charged with a violation of probation is a very serious and delicate situation that requires the skill of an experienced Violation of Probation (VOP) attorney.
