Protecting From Unnecessary Custody Time

Probation Violations

In cases where people face being incarcerated for a violation of community-controlled sanctions, Ian N. Friedman & Associates, L.L.C. is often hired to protect them from long and oftentimes unnecessary periods of custody.

Without proper representation, a court may rush to judgment based solely upon the complaint of a probation officer or other party.  Without a prepared lawyer by their side, a judge may not be aware that the claim is false or that there are extenuating circumstances.  If there is truth to the claim, the court should then be made aware of alternative sentencing options besides jail or prison.  Our lawyers are hired not just to appear for a short hearing but to prepare a full presentation on the client’s behalf.  As with all cases, we will work expeditiously in taking all reasonable steps to set a court date.

With thorough and thoughtful preparation we will construct a powerful defense argument which may include providing verification of employment, proof of treatment for addiction, highlighting reliance by family or co-workers on the client, support from others, and the person’s willingness to lead a productive life.

At Ian N. Friedman & Associates, no case is too small. The consequences in any criminal case are always great, and with that in mind we will fight aggressively and tirelessly on each client’s behalf.

Every Cleveland criminal defense attorney at Ian N. Friedman & Associates LLC believes in an aggressive, intelligent legal representation for our clients.
