We advise and represent individuals facing police investigations and criminal charges. From interview preparation and evidence review to negotiations with the prosecution and court appearances, we provide clear advice tailored to the allegations and your circumstances.
A criminal investigation or charge can affect your employment, reputation, family life and future plans. We help you understand the allegations, the legal process and the decisions you may need to make. Our advice can begin before a police interview or continue after charges have been laid.
We review the prosecution material carefully, including witness accounts, documents, recordings and other evidence relevant to the allegations. We examine the factual, legal and procedural issues and explain the strengths and weaknesses of the case against you. This assessment informs our advice on available defences, your plea and the preparation required.
Where appropriate, we engage with the prosecution about disputed allegations, possible charge withdrawals, diversion or other resolutions. If a guilty plea is being considered, we also assist with sentencing preparation, taking account of your personal circumstances and relevant supporting material.
If the matter proceeds to a contested hearing, we prepare the evidence and provide representation in court. Throughout the proceedings, we explain the available options, potential consequences and uncertainties so that you can make informed decisions. Our work includes matters involving assault, stalking, criminal damage and driving-related charges.
