Why do you need a lawyer?

Our criminal justice system ensures that you are granted a number of rights. This includes the presumption of innocence until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt.

We can ensure that you rights are met. We can explain what the offence is and what the Prosecution needs to prove before that offence is proven.

Even if the offence is proven, you may have a defence. We can explain to you the prospects of the case and advise you the best course of action to take.

We will represent you in court and speak on your behalf to the court, police, and any other relevant body. We can also obtain a range of relevant documents from other parties.

When your licence or liberty is at stake, you want the best representation you can get. If you or someone you know has been arrested or charged with criminal offence, don’t hesitate. Call or e-mail us now for a no obligation free consultation.
