PROVIDENCE PROBATION VIOLATIONS LAWYER
In many criminal cases, you may be sentenced to probation as an alternative to a jail sentence. You may be ordered to serve part of your sentence in jail and the rest of the sentence on probation. Probation generally comes with terms and conditions with which you must comply.
