If you have been charged, interviewed or bailed to appear, what you do in the first week matters more than anything that follows. We act for people from Coburg and across Melbourne's inner north, and we appear at the Broadmeadows Magistrates' Court.
Most matters from Coburg start at the Magistrates' Court, where the difference between a conviction and a non-conviction is usually made on preparation rather than argument — character material, the plea, and how the facts are put. Serious indictable matters move to the County Court, and we run those too. You will be told plainly what you are facing before you decide anything.
People in Coburg typically come to us after a police interaction—whether that's a street incident, a workplace matter that's escalated, or something that happened at a local venue. Often there's been a conversation with police, a summons has arrived, or someone's been asked to come in for questioning. The first practical step is to gather what you have: any letters or notices, names of witnesses who saw what happened, and a clear account of your own recollection while it's fresh. Bring any relevant documents—CCTV footage location details, messages, receipts, or employment records. We can then sit down and work through what happened, what you've been told, and what your options actually are.
Tell us what you have been charged with. We'll explain the likely range of outcomes for a matter like yours, and what can still be changed.
Leave your name and number — we call you straight back, usually within 2 minutes (8am–8pm), to understand your situation and book you in with the right lawyer. No cost, no obligation. Outside those hours we'll text you and call first thing.
We meet clients online right across Victoria — or in person at 911 High Street, Reservoir VIC 3073.
