Charged with a criminal or traffic offence?

We are happy to assist in relation to all aspects of the criminal law such as:

• Applying for legal aid;
• Whether to participate in a record of interview or exercise the right to remain silent;
• Advising clients held in custody;
• Making a bail application;
• The options available in relation to whether a guilty plea should be entered or the matter contested;
• Whether an appeal should be lodged.

We provide a free first interview. You will be informed about the costs involved at that time. As a member firm of the Victoria Legal Aid Summary and Indictable Crime Panels, we shall also advise you about your eligibility to receive legal aid and assist you in completing a Legal Aid application.

Police prosecutions are extremely distressing for the person charged and their family members. Experienced, efficient, and cost effect representation will assist you through the ordeal.
