How do I choose a good criminal defence lawyer?
Dribbin & Brown Criminal Lawyers assist clients in choosing the best criminal defence lawyer for their case in Templestowe. If you provide our firm’s support staff with the pertinent information about your criminal matter, we will direct you to the appropriate lawyer. When you meet your lawyer, it is important to make certain you and your lawyer are on the same page regarding your representation. Ask questions and our lawyers will happily answer if they are able.
How can a criminal defence lawyer help me?
Criminal defence lawyers represent clients in matters involving criminal law violations. Criminal defence lawyers handle the majority of tasks associated with criminal law cases. For example, criminal defence lawyers can examine the evidence against you and demonstrate to courts that the evidence is not as clear-cut as the police state it is. Criminal defence lawyers can also negotiate with governing authorities to lessen sentences or assist in the removal of charges from your record. Criminal defence lawyers ensure that your voice is heard in the courtroom.
Cost of a great criminal defence lawyer in Templestowe?
The costs of hiring a criminal defence lawyer vary based on the case. Some matters are more expensive and take more time while other matters do not require as much time and legwork. At Dribbin & Brown, for Magistrates’ Court matters, we quote one fee for services rendered whenever possible – so you know exactly what your representation will cost at the onset. For cases in County and Supreme Courts, we do our best to clearly explain our fees at the beginning of the representation.
How can I find the best criminal lawyer for me?
Dribbin & Brown Criminal Lawyers in Templestowe can help you find a good criminal lawyer. Our firm specialises in criminal defence. We are available seven days a week from 7 a.m. to 12 a.m. by phone and email. Our firm is happy to offer phone appointments and video appointments to individuals who are unable to meet at our Templestowe office in person. In these meetings, we will learn more about the legal issue you are dealing with and use this information to find you the best legal representation.
What can I do if I can't afford a criminal defence lawyer?
If you cannot pay a criminal lawyer’s fees, there are alternative options available. Legal Aid is a helpful and substantial option for support. Legal Aid is a government-funded service in Australia that provides legal representation and advice, free of charge to individuals that qualify for the program. Dribbin & Brown Criminal Lawyers accepts Legal Aid enquiries, and we occasionally take on clients that are recipients of Legal Aid funding.
I have been charged with a criminal offence, what lawyer should I hire?
If you are charged with a criminal offence, you should hire a lawyer in Templestowe who is specialised in handling criminal matters that are similar to yours, i.e., a criminal defence lawyer. Criminal defence lawyers will know the law governing your offence, and they will likely know the court system in Templestowe. Dribbin & Brown Criminal Lawyers has lawyers you can trust to represent you in your criminal case.
At what stage should I hire a criminal lawyer?
It is best to hire a criminal lawyer as soon as you have been charged in a criminal matter. If you are already past that initial point in your criminal case, you can still hire a lawyer to assist you, and you will likely be very glad that you did. The right lawyer can reduce the stress you have associated with your criminal case by stepping in and making things right.
What should I know before hiring a criminal defence lawyer?
When contacting a lawyer you are interested in hiring, you should ask a few important questions. The following questions are helpful to ask regardless of what type of criminal charge you are facing.
- What outcomes could result from the charges that I am facing?
- Do you have experience representing clients in this type of case?
- Do you specialise in criminal law or any other type of law?
- How long will I be dealing with this matter?
- What is the estimated cost for this matter?
- How long have you been licensed?
