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 Taylors Lakes and across Melbourne's west, and we appear at the Sunshine Magistrates' Court.
Most matters from Taylors Lakes 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 Taylors Lakes who face criminal charges often find themselves dealing with police matters that need immediate attention—anything from traffic-related charges to more serious allegations. The shock of being charged, questioned, or arrested can make it hard to know what to do next. Most people in this situation need to gather documents: any police letters, court notices, or communications about what happened. If you've been interviewed or charged, writing down what you remember about the sequence of events, who was involved, and what was said helps clarify things before a lawyer reviews it with you. Understanding what you're actually facing and what steps come next is usually the first priority.
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.
