Re: Probation Violation

My first recommendation is that you seek counsel from an Attorney who can immediately contact the DA's office for which the charges are pending as well as to give you guidance. Without knowing more specific details of your DUI and assault charges, as well as the terms of your probation, I cannot give you a cut and dry answer.

If you desire more specific legal content please feel free to contact my office at www.AlleghenyAttorneys.com or 412.731.0865
