Frequently Asked Questions
What should I do if I've been charged?
Contact a criminal lawyer immediately — before speaking to police. The earlier you get advice, the more options you have. Call us on (03) 9957 6899 — consultations from $180 (30 min) incl. GST.
Can a lawyer get charges dropped?
Yes. A skilled criminal lawyer can negotiate with police and prosecutors to have charges withdrawn, downgraded or resolved without a conviction, particularly for first-time offenders.
How much does a criminal lawyer cost?
We offer fixed-fee arrangements and flexible payment plans. Cost depends on the court and complexity. We're transparent about fees from your first consultation.
