Facing Charges?

When you are charged with a criminal offence, you need clear advice and prompt action.

With almost 20 years criminal law experience, I personally handle your matter, explain your options in straightforward terms and act early to pursue the best possible outcome.

I have represented clients in cases resulting in acquittals at trial, police or prosecution office downgrading charges, non-custodial sentences and even charges being discontinued.

Every case depends on its own facts. If your case needs to go to trial, I will personally prepare your defence and represent you at trial.

I have personally done close to 200 jury trials in the last 19 years. My court-room experience is of the highest calibre.

I will pursue the best and most cost-effective outcome for you.

I practice in each of the 3 State courts:

• The Supreme Court - homicide cases

• District Court - where most serious cases are dealt with

• Magistrates Court (all over WA) - less serious charges and restraining orders

CHARGES I DEFEND

• Violent offences

• Sexual offences

• Drug trafficking and other drug offences

• Fraud, property and other offences

  I also have extensive experience in all forms of restraining-order proceedings, including Family Violence Restraining Orders, Violence Restraining Orders, Misconduct Restraining Orders and interstate restraining orders. I have acted for many people, both applicants seeking restraining orders and respondents opposing them.
