Parole/Probation Violations

Don't Let a Misstep Lead to Probation Problems

We have three lawyers who are Certified by the Supreme Court of New Jersey as Criminal Trial Attorneys. Call us for our extraordinary level of experience and recognized legal skill.

The law defines parole/probation violations as breaking the rules signed when paroled from prison or given probation. Those on parole or probation can be held without bail. They can be sent back to prison for violations as simple as the following:

  • Failing to report for monthly visits as required;
  • Failing to pay fines;
  • Moving to a new location without permission or notification;
  • Not attending required classes or programs;
  • Testing positive for drugs;
  • Not being at home at curfew time; and
  • Additional arrests.

If you are facing parole/probation violations, the NJ lawyers at Helmer, Paul, Conley & Kasselman, P.A. can help. With over 120 years of criminal litigation experience, we know the strengths and weaknesses of our adversaries and their cases. We will fight to uphold your rights.

Obtaining Parole

After serving your parole ineligibility period, you are eligible for release. This means that you could serve only a fraction of your sentence. We can help you appear at your best at your parole hearing. Although attorneys cannot attend the hearing, we can help by doing the following:

  • Obtaining letters of support;
  • Coaching you; and
  • Sending helpful information to the parole board.
