Do not Remove this
Will I get bail?
Criminal lawyers represent defendants facing criminal charges in local, state and federal Courts. We can assist with bail hearings, plea bargains, appeals, trials, parole/probation hearings and more.
Our role is to fight vigorously for your rights in Court and explain the context for you at the time of the alleged offence. We will raise defences that will convince the Court, the jury, the judge and the magistrate that you are not guilty of that offence, or we will work to reduce your sentence.
Truly, our role is to protect you in the Courtroom at all times.
If I am innocent, do I still need a lawyer?
What are the fees and charges?
How many years have you been practising criminal law?

We are always available for a chat and we will keep you updated about your case every step of the way — there will never be any moments of uncertainty.

Ivy Green will also be working on your case — the friendliest Rottweiler in Sydney’s eastern suburbs. She is always available for pets and to relieve any stressors.
Can I be convicted
if I did not know that I was committing a crime?
Generally speaking, yes. Not knowing the law is not a defence when it comes to a crime. It is difficult to use this as a defence in good faith when, in most cases, the crime tends to be obviously illegal.
How long does a criminal trial last?
What is criminal negligence?
Can I claim self-defence if I was in a fight?
Possibly. You can use this defence if you have a reasonable belief that you were defending yourself or someone else who was in imminent danger. If you started the fight, you could potentially use self-defence if you used preventative force in a situation where you believed someone was about to use force against you. However, self-defence is limited to what would be necessary to prevent an attack.
What should I do have the police ask to interview me?
Do I have to give the police DNA and fingerprints?
Can the police search me or my house?
The police want me to go to the station. What should I do?
How can Green & Associates help if I have to complete a police interview/I am arrested?
Can you assist with business matters?
Can you help me with traffic offences?
Yes. We specialise in the following areas:
- Dangerous driving
- Drink/drug driving
- Driving while disqualified
- Negligent driving
- Police pursuits
- Speeding
- Street racing
