Probation & Parole Violations

Salt Lake City lawyer committed to protecting your freedom

Probation and parole are based on the idea of giving criminals a measure of freedom as an incentive for being a law-abiding citizen in the future. However, this freedom is not completely free. Probationers and parolees in Utah are forced to live under stringent rules and constant supervision. In addition, a single accusation by your probation or parole officer may force you to spend the remainder of your original sentence behind bars. The Law Office of Harold W. Stone, III understands how unfair this entire process can be, and is dedicated to protecting the rights of people accused of violating probation or parole.

Dedicated defense for all probation and parole violations

From his office in Midvale, attorney Harold Stone handles all forms of probation and parole violations for clients throughout Utah, including the following:

  • Failing to report to your parole/probation officer
  • Failing to report a change of address
  • Failing an alcohol, drug or urine test
  • Failing to complete mandatory drug or alcohol education/treatment programs
  • Conviction on a new criminal charge
  • Violation of a federal court pre-trial supervised release

Get the justice you deserve

If you or a loved one have been arrested for violating probation or parole, it is very likely that you will be sent to jail. In addition, your parole or probation may be revoked and your original sentence may be reinstated. Any challenges to these accusations must be made in court or at a hearing that is governed by civil law. Civil law requires much less proof to find someone guilty, and often the only piece of evidence needed to send you to jail is the testimony of your supervising officer.

Although this situation may appear hopeless, criminal attorney in Salt Lake City Harold Stone has the knowledge and skill to help you remain free. Harold Stone makes securing your release from jail his top priority. Whether it is in court or in front of a parole board, Mr. Stone vehemently argues against your accusers’ theories to prove that you abided by the terms of your sentence. Mr. Stone can also press to reinstate your revoked probation to help you avoid spending time behind bars.
