Forgery Offence

Forgery is the fraudulent and unlawful copying or imitation of documents, signatures, banknotes, art or other articles for deceptive purposes. Under section 253 of the Crimes Act 1900 (NSW), Forgery, also known as making false documents, is classified as an offence and states that:

Client Charged with $19,000 Fraud – Sentence Negotiation and Successful Appeal

In a recent fraud matter that carried significant financial implications on our client, our criminal defence lawyers immediately set to work, conducting a comprehensive review of the evidence, and exploring potential avenues for mitigation.

Through skilful negotiations with the prosecution, we were able to reduce the charged amount from $19,000 down to $13,000.

The case then proceeded to the Local Court, where our client was ultimately sentenced to a Community Corrections Order for a period of nine months. While this outcome represented a positive step in reducing the impact of the charges, we believed that a more favorable resolution was possible.

With this conviction in mind, our legal team appealed the sentence to the District Court, seeking a more lenient outcome that would not result in a criminal conviction for our client. Our efforts were rewarded with a Conditional Release Order for two years. This result was particularly significant as it meant that our client could move forward without the burden of a criminal record and its associated consequences.

Our success in negotiating the reduced charge and securing a Conditional Release Order in the District Court marked a significant legal victory, allowing our client to put this legal ordeal behind them and maintain their future prospects and opportunities.
