Early Termination of Probation We Fight For Your Freedom

Melbourne, FL Early Termination of Probation Attorney

You Could Be Eligible to End Your Probation Early in Brevard County

Probation serves as a preferable alternative to imprisonment. When under probation, people convicted of crimes are permitted to avoid time in prison under the condition that they will follow the terms of probation. While this is a valuable option for many people, the terms of probation can be very stifling and make life difficult. A probationary period can last for a long time, typically anywhere between one to three years, but the court can order it for longer.

If you have exhibited consistent good behavior since your probation was put into effect, it may be possible to terminate your probation early. At the Law Offices of Bryan J. McCarthy, our experienced criminal defense lawyer in Melbourne, FL can review your case and guide you through the process of applying for early termination of probation.

Call (321) 248-7742 to speak with our attorney about ending your probation early.

Am I Eligible for Early Termination?

When you were placed under probation, you were provided with a list of rules you had to follow in order to continue probation and stay out of prison. This likely included a fine which you had to pay off over the course of your probation. If you have paid off your fine and diligently adhered to the terms of your probation, then the Department of Corrections (DOC) may recommend early termination of probation. In many cases, however, you will have to file a Motion to Terminate Probation Early.

The court is not required to grant early termination of probation just because the DOC recommended it. A judge will look at the following factors when making the final decision:

  • Have you served at least half of your probationary period?
  • Have you paid off all fines and fees associated with probation?
  • Have you completed all court-mandated community service or substance abuse counseling sessions?

If the answer to all of these questions is “yes” then you should be eligible for early termination. At this stage, you should meet with a criminal defense lawyer who can help you prepare your Motion to Terminate Probation Early.

  • "Thank you again for being a real lawyer."
    I just wanted to thank you for serving as a good example for all lawyers out there. Thank you for taking care of my friend and her son and for going the extra mile. I know it’s not easy. All too often I hear terrible stories about how some bad apples treat their clients. It’s nice to know that I’m not the only one who treats their clients almost like family. Thank you again for being a real lawyer.
