PRESS RELEASE: Why would I need a criminal defence lawyer?
If you have been charged with a criminal offence in Queensland, it is important that you engage an experienced criminal defence solicitor as soon as possible.
Navigating the criminal justice system, including the police, the prosecutors, the courts and the law can be a daunting process.

1. Assist you throughout the criminal justice process;
2. Interpret the complexities of the law and break down in a simple manner how the law applies to your case;
3. Advise you of your options, and likely outcomes of each option;
4. Identify weaknesses in the prosecution’s case and the strengths in your case;
5. Assist in reducing your potential penalty;
6. Communicate with other parties such as the prosecution on your behalf;
7. Negotiate with the prosecutor on your behalf;
8. Provide support to you and assist with rehabilitation;
9. Defend your rights, your reputation and your freedom.
