Following a verbal disagreement incident with a tenant, my wife and I were charged with false domestic violence by police and faced a DVO as well, and ADVO. We approached a few lawyers but Michel (Mich) spook to us with the utmost care and compassion. From the get go he managed every aspect of our case and managed us emotionally. They were extremely transparent and guided us with extreme professionalism. At the date of the hearing Mich and Ethan reviewed the evidence against the false allegations against us. They were able to show the police prosecutor the evidence and convince them that their case had significant flaws as well as false depiction of events. The prosecutor dropped all charges as well as the DVO after Mich and Ethan convinced them. They have literally managed to save our lives and everything we have worked for. They hold a special place in our lives and we are utmost grateful to them. We got the best outcome for our case thanks to them! THANKS MICH AND ETHAN ❤️ Also their suits were fabulous

From start to finish my experience with Criminal Law was flawless. I was lucky enough to have Michel representing me and I can’t recommend him enough. His friendly, caring and helpful attitude made a daunting process so much easier. We didn’t get the result we wanted in the Local Court so made an appeal and this is really where Michel shone. The manner in which he presented my case and spoke for me left the judge with no doubt to rule in my favour. Thank you again Michel for all your help and support. Simon

    Criminal Defence at Liverpool Local Court

    If your matter is listed at Liverpool Local Court, early legal advice is essential. Liverpool Local Court deals with the full range of summary and Table offences arising from Liverpool and South Western Sydney. At the first mention, the prosecution serves the police fact sheet or brief of evidence.

    Featured In

    You Have Been Charged: What Happens Next

    1

    You Have Been Charged

    ×
    A matter listed at Liverpool Local Court begins with a Court Attendance Notice nominating it as the venue for the first appearance. The notice records the charge and the first court date. Any police bail conditions must be complied with before and at court. A lawyer engaged before the first listing can review the charge and explain how matters proceed at Liverpool.
    2

    Your First Court Appearance

    +
    At the first mention, we appear on your behalf, obtain the police fact sheet so that no decisions are made before your position has been properly assessed. The prosecution will serve the police facts at this stage. We review the allegations, identify any inconsistencies and advise you clearly on what the charge involves, what the prosecution must prove and what options are available to you before the next court date.
    3

    We Assess the Prosecution Case

    +
    Once the full brief of evidence is served, we review every statement, CCTV recording, forensic material and admissions the prosecution intends to rely on. We identify weaknesses in the prosecution case, assess the viability of any available defence and advise on whether the matter should be defended or resolved by plea. You are told exactly where you stand based on the evidence, not assumptions.
    4

    We Advise on the Right Strategy

    +
    We advise on the strongest course available based on the charge and the evidence. Where a defence exists, we prepare for a contested hearing. Where a plea is appropriate, we begin building the sentencing case from this point. A guilty plea entered at the earliest appropriate opportunity attracts a sentencing discount and the preparation of strong subjective material can directly affect the penalty imposed.
    5

    We Represent You at Every Stage

    +
    We appear at every mention, adjournment and hearing. Your matter is prepared properly in advance, not at the last minute. Character references, reports and submissions are assembled and placed before the court in a form that gives the Judge the clearest possible picture of your circumstances. At a defended hearing, we cross-examine prosecution witnesses and test every piece of evidence relied upon.
    6

    Your Matter Is Finalised

    +
    Your matter is resolved by plea, hearing, withdrawal or sentence. Where a Section 10 conditional release order without conviction is available, we make that application with full supporting material. Where a more serious outcome is at risk, our submissions address every relevant factor. From charge to finalisation, your defence is structured to achieve the strongest possible outcome based on the evidence and the law.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Is a free initial consultation available?

    +
    Yes. You speak directly with a criminal defence lawyer about your charge, the police facts and your court date. The consultation is confidential and protected by legal professional privilege. You will receive clear advice on your position, what the prosecution must prove and what should be done next before any decision is made about the conduct of the matter. We appear regularly at Liverpool Local Court. Call 1300 274 652 to speak with a lawyer now.

    What happens if I call now?

    +
    You will speak directly with a criminal defence lawyer. Your situation is assessed immediately based on the charge, the police facts and your court date. You will be told where you stand, what options are available and what steps should be taken before your first court date. Early advice provides the most options. The sooner you call, the more time there is to prepare your matter properly before any court appearance is made.

    What if I am guilty? Can a lawyer still help?

    +
    Yes. Many matters proceed on a guilty plea and the outcome of those matters depends entirely on how the sentencing case is prepared and presented. We advise on plea, prepare the sentencing case properly and position the matter to achieve the strongest outcome available based on your circumstances and the charge. In appropriate first-offence matters, a Section 10 conditional release order without conviction is available and avoids a criminal record entirely.

    Is it too late to get a lawyer before my court date?

    +
    It is rarely too late. However, earlier advice provides more options and allows your matter to be properly prepared from the outset. Even if your court date is close, obtaining advice now can still affect how your matter proceeds and what outcome is available to you. We can take instructions and arrange representation at short notice, including on the day of the first mention where urgent representation is required.

    Do I need a lawyer or can I represent myself?

    +
    You can represent yourself, but you will be assessing evidence, navigating court procedure and making submissions on sentencing considerations that directly affect the outcome. A criminal defence lawyer confirms your position is protected, the prosecution case is properly tested and the strongest available outcome is pursued at every stage. The quality of the legal work done before and at Liverpool Local Court materially affects the result in every criminal matter.

    How much will this cost?

    +
    Fixed fee options are available for most Local Court criminal matters and fees are confirmed before any work begins. Your lawyer provides a clear fee estimate at the initial consultation based on the nature and complexity of the charge. You will know the cost before proceeding and no additional charges arise without your prior agreement. For District Court matters, a detailed fee estimate is provided at the outset based on the expected scope of the proceedings.
