Getting Off Probation And Community Control

By Timothy Hessinger

Can Probation Be Reduced?

Probation can often be reduced after approximately half of the probation term is completed. Community control can also be ended early and rolled over in regular probation at the halfway point. The court usually has complete discretion to shorten a client’s probation or community control.

Getting off probation early can be a huge benefit to our clients:

1. No more probation fees
2. No more risk of a probation or community control violations
3. No more reporting
4. No more written reports
5. You have your freedom back

How Do I Get My Probation Reduced?

To have the best chance at early termination a thorough evaluation of the client’s situation and progress should be made. If appropriate, the Law Office of Timothy Hessinger, P.A. will file a motion for early termination, make direct contact with the probation officer, make direct contact with the State Attorney and argue your case to the court.
