Key contacts
Client guide — Criminal Law
All client guidesWhat should I do if I am arrested?
Remain calm and exercise your right to remain silent. Do not make any statement without legal counsel present, and contact an advocate immediately.
Should I talk to the police before speaking with a lawyer?
No. You have the right to legal representation, and anything you say may be used in evidence. Speak to a lawyer first.
What bail options do I have?
Bail depends on the nature of the charges and your circumstances. We explain the options, prepare bail applications and represent you at bail hearings.
How can this case be defended?
Defence strategy depends on the facts and evidence. We review the case thoroughly, identify the available lines of defence and build a strategy suited to your situation.
