You are not required to have a lawyer, but a criminal charge can affect your licence, your employment, your travel and your record for years afterwards. Getting advice early means you understand the charge, the evidence and the realistic outcomes before you enter a plea.
You have the right to remain silent and the right to speak to a lawyer. Beyond giving your name and address, you do not have to answer questions. Ask to contact a lawyer before you take part in any interview.
It depends on the offence, your history and what the court considers the risks to be. A well prepared bail application addresses those concerns directly, with proposed conditions, accommodation and any support already in place.
An AVO on its own is a civil order and is not a criminal conviction. Breaching one is a criminal offence. An AVO can still affect your work, your firearms licence and your living arrangements, so it is worth getting advice before consenting to one.
Yes. Some offences carry automatic disqualification periods and others leave it to the court. Depending on the circumstances there may be options available to you, so it is worth having your matter looked at properly.
That depends on the charge and how the matter runs. We will explain our fees clearly at the first consultation so you know where you stand before you commit to anything.
Do not face the legal process alone. Contact us today to arrange a confidential consultation about your matter.
