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 Thornhill Park and across Melbourne's west, and we appear at the Sunshine Magistrates' Court.
Most matters from Thornhill Park 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 Thornhill Park who face a criminal matter often contact a lawyer after being charged or summoned, or when police have signalled they're investigating something involving them. It might follow an incident at work, a dispute that escalated, a driving matter, or something that happened at home or in the street. The practical first step is to gather any documents you have—police letters, court papers, communications with the other person—and write down what happened from your perspective, including who was there and what was said. A lawyer can then review the charge or allegation with you, explain what it means, and discuss how to respond.
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.
