Our areas of expertise
Assault Charges
Assault charges involve intentional physical harm or the threat of harm to another person. This can range from simple assault to more severe charges like aggravated assault, depending on the degree of harm caused or the use of weapons.
Drug Offences
Drug offences encompass a wide range of charges related to the possession, distribution, manufacturing, or trafficking of illegal substances. The severity of charges often depends on the type and quantity of drugs involved.
Theft and Property Crimes
Theft and property crimes involve unlawfully taking or damaging another person’s property. This category includes offences such as burglary, robbery, shoplifting, and vandalism. Penalties vary based on the value of the stolen or damaged property.
Apprehended Violence Orders (AVOs)
An Apprehended Violence Order (AVO) is a legal order designed to protect individuals from violence, threats, or intimidation. It can be sought by someone who fears for their safety or by law enforcement on behalf of a person deemed at risk. AVOs may include restrictions on contact, proximity, or specific behaviours to ensure the safety of the protected person. Violating an AVO can result in criminal charges.
Traffic Offences
Traffic law deals with violations and offences occurring on roadways. It includes a variety of offences such as speeding, reckless driving, drink driving, driving whilst under the influence of prohibited drugs, and driving without a valid licence. While some traffic offences are considered civil matters, others can lead to criminal charges with serious consequences. Traffic law also involves regulations governing vehicle registration, licensing, and road safety.
Sexual Offences
Sexual offences encompass a range of charges related to non-consensual sexual activities. This includes offences like sexual intercourse without consent, and sexual misconduct. Cases in this category require careful legal navigation due to the sensitive nature of the allegations.
