CRIMINAL LAW
If you have been charged with a criminal offence, you are likely feeling overwhelmed and anxious. It is important you engage an experienced criminal lawyer who can advise, support and represent you throughout the process, from your first attendance at a police station, to a hearing before the Court. We are committed to upholding your rights and ensuring the best possible outcome to minimise any impact on your future or liberty.
Sentencing hearings
If you have been charged with a criminal offence and wish to plead guilty, we can represent you at Court to achieve the best and fairest outcome based on your unique circumstances.
Bail
If you have been charged with a criminal offence and refused bail by police, we can represent you in a bail application before the Local Court. We also offer police station and gaol visits if you are being held in custody.
Defended hearings
If you have been charged with a criminal offence and wish to plead not guilty, we can advise you as to any available defences, and represent you at a defended hearing.
Appeals
If you believe the penalty handed down by the Local Court in your matter was too harsh, we can represent you in an appeal to the District Court.
Apprehended Violence Orders
We can help you to successfully defend an application for Apprehended Violence Order (AVO) made against you, or apply for an AVO for your own protection.
Section 14 applications
If you have been charged with a criminal offence and you suffer from a mental health condition or cognitive impairment, we can represent you in a Section 14 (Mental Health) application before the Local Court.
