What If You Have Been Placed on Probation in Arizona?

Hi my name is Cindy Castillo with Castillo Law today I would like to talk with you about what to do if you been placed on probation Now this is often a topic that's not really addressed with you after you've pled guilty to an offense and have been sentenced by a judge. It is very important that you maintain a very professional relationship with your probation officer. First off a probation officer is going to assess you right away and determine whether or not you're somebody that he or she needs to supervise and monitor on a regular basis or if you are one of those individuals who he or she just expects to pay their probation fee each month. If you get off on the wrong foot with your probation officer this can tend to mean a lot of visits by the probation officer. Sometimes a probation officer will write you up for things that you seem or you think is not appropriate. So it's very important to establish a very good rapport with your probation officer early on. Now if you find yourself in a situation where perhaps you have gotten off on the wrong foot with your probation officer and you receive a petition to revoke your probation you need to speak with an attorney right away.
