What should I do if I am arrested or charged?

If you are arrested or charged with a criminal offence, exercise your right to remain silent and contact a lawyer as soon as possible. Do not make any statements to the police without legal advice. We can attend the police station, advise you on your rights, and represent you at your first court appearance.

Will I have to go to court?

If you are charged with a criminal offence, you will need to appear in court. However, in some cases your lawyer may be able to appear on your behalf. The court process varies depending on the seriousness of the charge. We guide you through every step and prepare you for what to expect at each stage.

Can criminal charges be dropped or reduced?

Yes, in some cases charges can be withdrawn, reduced, or resolved through diversion. This depends on the evidence, the type of offence, and your personal circumstances. We carefully review the prosecution’s case and negotiate with the police or Crown prosecutor to achieve the best possible outcome for you.
