Top Criminal Defense, Probation, Parole, and Detainer Lawyer in Philadelphia, Pa | Attorney Brian F. Humble

Navigating the complexities of probation and parole can be daunting, especially when facing potential violations such as open bills or open cases. These can arise from technical violations—like missing a scheduled meeting with your probation officer or failing a mandatory drug test—or direct violations, which involve a new arrest for a criminal offense while under supervision. Additionally, these violations can lead to the imposition of detainers, which prevent release from custody until a hearing is held. Often, this requires an attorney to file a motion to lift the detainer to avoid prolonged incarceration. 

​

There are generally two types of detainers: county probation or parole detainers, and state probation or parole detainers. Each type can significantly impact your freedom and legal standing.
