The Role of a Defence Lawyer

At our firm, we understand that being charged with a criminal offence can be a daunting and overwhelming experience. That's why we believe it's crucial to have a skilled and experienced defence lawyer by your side. Our defence lawyers play a vital role in ensuring that your legal rights are protected and that you receive a fair trial. We provide guidance, support, and representation throughout the entire legal process, from the initial investigation to the final verdict.

Should I Plead Guilty or Not Guilty?

One of the most critical decisions you'll make in a criminal case is whether to plead guilty or not guilty. Our defence lawyers can help you make this decision by evaluating the evidence against you, assessing the strengths and weaknesses of the prosecution's case, and considering the potential consequences of a guilty plea. We can also negotiate with prosecutors to reduce charges or seek a more lenient sentence.

Allegation of Sexual Assault - Our Practice and Approach

At our firm, we take allegations of sexual assault very seriously. We understand that these cases are often complex and emotionally charged, and we approach them with sensitivity, compassion, and a deep understanding of the law. Our defence lawyers have extensive experience representing clients facing sexual assault charges, and we are committed to providing a strong and effective defence.

Defences

In criminal law, there are various defences that may be available to you, depending on the nature of the charges and the evidence against you. Our defence lawyers are well-versed in all aspects of criminal defence, including self-defence, defence of property, mistake of fact, and necessity. We will carefully evaluate your case to determine which defences may be applicable and build a strong defence strategy on your behalf.

ASIC Investigations

If you're under investigation by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC), it's essential to have experienced legal representation. Our defence lawyers can help you understand the nature of the investigation, advise you on your rights and obligations, and represent you in interviews and hearings. We can also help you prepare a response to ASIC's allegations and negotiate a resolution.

CCC Investigations

The Corruption and Crime Commission (CCC) has the power to investigate allegations of corruption, misconduct, and criminal activity involving public officers and public agencies. If you're under investigation by the CCC, our defence lawyers can provide you with the advice and representation you need. We can help you understand the investigation process, protect your rights, and defend yourself against any allegations.

Historical Sexual Assault and Rape

Historical sexual assault and rape cases can be particularly challenging to defend due to the passage of time and the potential loss or unavailability of evidence. However, our defence lawyers have extensive experience representing clients facing these types of charges. We will carefully evaluate your case, consider all available defences, and build a strong defence strategy on your behalf.

Common Assaults & Serious Assaults

Assault charges can range from common assaults to serious assaults involving weapons or resulting in grievous bodily harm.

Medical Practitioners and AHPRA

Medical practitioners and other healthcare professionals are subject to strict regulations and oversight by the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA).

We have experience representing medical practitioners and other healthcare professionals in AHPRA proceedings and can help protect your rights and reputation.
