Lexington Probation Revocation Attorneys

Just because you messed up, it doesn’t mean you have to end up serving your time. Our three-hundred-sixty degree approach means that we can match you with an appropriate treatment provider or alternative sentence.

The most common cause of criminal convictions is addiction. The sad reality of addiction is that it is difficult to overcome and users frequently relapse. Expecting someone with a heavy habit to pass every drug test is unrealistic. If you or a loved one have a setback while you are on probation, we can help. Contact our Lexington criminal defense attorneys at Baldani Law Group PLLC to figure out what to do next. We can listen to the facts and help you decide what is best for you.

Call us now at (859) 259-0727 or contact us online to schedule an appointment for your consultation.

I Couldn’t Ask For A Better Lawyer

Tucker is good at what he does and it shows. I couldn’t ask for a better lawyer. He treated me more like a friend than just another client. Money well spent. I would recommend him to anyone in search of a criminal defense lawyer. I asked around who was the best lawyer in town, I was told Baldani Law Group…

Did Not Give Up

Tucker Richardson worked really hard for me and did not give up during the arraignment for my second Alcohol Intoxication charge to prove there was no probable cause for my arrest. His effort and persistence ultimately led to the judge not wanting to send my case to trial and the charge of AI against me was dismissed…
