Frequently Asked Questions
I've just been arrested or charged. Can you help me immediately?
Yes. Our lawyers are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, for urgent legal advice and rapid response. It is critical to have an expert on your side from the very beginning. Call our 24/7 hotline now for immediate assistance with arrests, police interviews, and bail applications.
Can you represent me before I’m formally charged?
Yes. If police have contacted you for an interview or said you may be charged, it’s important to seek advice right away. Our lawyers can advise you on your rights, attend the interview with you, and take early action that may prevent charges from being filed or help secure a better outcome later.
What should I do if the police want to interview me?
Always speak to a lawyer before agreeing to a police interview. What you say can have a major impact on your case. We can explain your rights, advise whether you should answer questions, and attend the interview to make sure your position is fully protected.
I think I have to plead guilty. Can you still help me?
Absolutely. Even if you plead guilty, our role is critical. We work tirelessly to minimise penalties by negotiating the police facts, preparing persuasive submissions for the court, and guiding you on steps to demonstrate remorse and rehabilitation, often resulting in no conviction being recorded.
What happens during my 1st Legal Strategy Session and is it free?
Your first strategy session with us is completely free and confidential. In this meeting, we will listen to your situation, review the police evidence, explain your legal options in plain English, and outline a clear and powerful defence strategy tailored to achieving the best possible outcome for you.
How much will it cost to hire your criminal lawyers?
We believe in transparency and access to justice. We offer a free initial strategy session to assess your case and provide clear advice. For many matters, we provide an upfront, fixed-fee quote, so you can proceed with certainty and without the stress of hidden costs.
Do You Offer Fixed Fees?
Yes. We believe you deserve complete certainty and transparency during what is already a stressful time. For the majority of our criminal and traffic cases, we provide an upfront, fixed-fee agreement. This means you know the full cost of your expert legal representation from the very beginning, allowing you to focus on your defence without the anxiety of unpredictable hourly bills. We will provide a clear, all-inclusive quote during your free initial strategy session.
Who will actually handle my case?
Your case will be handled by our dedicated team of specialist criminal and traffic lawyers. You will benefit directly from the extensive courtroom experience of our Principal Lawyer, Robert Daoud, and our entire team, ensuring you receive expert, hands-on representation, not a junior substitute.
What kind of results can I expect from your firm?
While we can never guarantee a specific result, our reputation is built on achieving hundreds of successful outcomes. We focus on having charges withdrawn, securing not-guilty verdicts, and minimising penalties to protect your licence, your reputation, and your future.
Can you represent me in any court in the Sydney area?
Yes. Our criminal lawyers have logged thousands of appearances across all NSW courts, including Local, District, and Supreme Courts. We have an intimate understanding of the procedures and personnel in courtrooms across Sydney and are prepared to defend you wherever your matter is heard.
Do you handle matters outside Sydney?
Yes. While our firm is based in Sydney, we regularly represent clients in regional and metropolitan courts across New South Wales. We can also arrange consultations by phone or video call if you’re located outside Sydney.
Can you help with appeals or sentence reductions?
Yes. If you’ve been convicted or believe your sentence was too harsh, we can assess your case and explain your appeal options. Our lawyers have extensive experience preparing appeals and applications for sentence reductions in both Local and District Courts.
How do I get started with my defence?
Getting started is simple and immediate. The first step is to call our 24/7 hotline for urgent advice or to book your free, no-obligation strategy session. The sooner we can start building your defence, the stronger your position will be.
Will my case be made public or appear online?
Most criminal and traffic cases are heard in open court and can be reported publicly. However, in some cases, we can apply for non-publication or suppression orders to protect your privacy. We’ll explain what options are available and guide you through the process.
