If you are ever faced with criminal charges, preparation is the key to avoiding a criminal record, expensive fines, and even a period of imprisonment. And this type of preparation involves the expertise of a criminal defence lawyer.

But how important is a criminal defence lawyer?

In short, we are your best link to maintaining your freedom. We represent you in Court, comprise your appropriate defence strategy, argue against the prosecution’s or police’s case and so much more.

In addition to our duties, our criminal lawyers also understand that it is vitally important to ensure client care, contact and communication is at the top of the list, to ensure we help our clients through what is a difficult and stressful period of their lives.

When a person is under investigation or is arrested for any type of offence, it can be difficult to know what to do. The police officer may have told you there was no hope of avoiding a conviction. The criminal charges you face may be so serious that you feel there is no way to avoid years or even a term of imprisonment.

However, it is important to remember that you always have options. With one of our competent criminal defence lawyers at your side, you can vigorously fight your charges. We fully investigate your case in order to determine what can be done to protect your rights. Whether this is your first arrest or you are facing serious charges, we can work to gather evidence and witness testimony on your behalf and develop a legal strategy that utilises the legal system in your favour.

It is important to note that our criminal lawyers may also be able to have your charges reduced, your penalties lessened, or even have your case dismissed due to, for example, police errors while illegally obtaining evidence against you, but also for many other reasons as well.
