Assisting Clients in Stockbridge and Henry County, Georgia

Living your life after a felony or misdemeanor conviction can be a challenge. With various limitations placed on your habits by probation, it can be easy to find yourself in increased trouble when new charges arise, or if you test positive for marijuana. Such crimes or positive tests can quickly lead to probation revocations, landing you behind bars. The assistance of an experienced lawyer can help you avoid jail time, even when you have violated the terms of your probation.

For nearly 20 years, the Law Offices of Thomas S. Barton, P.C. has provided assertive representation to clients facing probation revocation following marijuana-related crimes or positive drug tests. Attorney Tom Barton has the knowledge and experience to help you avoid probation revocation and jail time in the South Metro area of Atlanta, especially Henry County, McDonough, Stockbridge, and Locust Grove.

If you are on probation for a marijuana case and have committed a new crime, tested positive for marijuana or have not lived up to the terms of your probation, our attorney can help. Contact our office online or call 770-961-7400 to discuss your situation today.

Avoiding Probation Revocation Through Treatment

Probation privileges can be revoked, allowing the judge to sentence you to jail to serve the time remaining on your sentence. Such revocations can send you to prison for a long time, ruining any progress you have made since your conviction.

Fortunately, there are options to probation revocation that appeal to you and the justice system alike, including substance abuse treatment and counseling. Individuals willing to undergo treatment are often able to maintain their probation status, and freedom, provided the program is completed as directed and no further infractions are reported by your probation officer.

Over many years, our firm has established relationships with a number of psychologists and psychiatrists all over the Atlanta area, as well as with counselors and treatment facilities, allowing us to provide the guidance you need to get the help you deserve while retaining your freedom and probationary status.

We have found that enrolling our clients into treatment immediately works favorably for you in court, greatly impacting the outcome of pending probation revocation proceedings.
