Frequently Asked Questions

Being charged with a criminal offence can be a stressful and confusing experience. At LY Lawyers, we understand the challenges you face.

Here’s a look at some of the most frequently asked questions about criminal law in Sydney, Australia:

Q: What is a criminal defence lawyer and what do they do?

A: A criminal defence lawyer is a legal professional who specialises in representing individuals accused of crimes. Their role is to protect your rights throughout the legal process, from the initial investigation, to the court proceedings. Here are some key responsibilities of a criminal defence lawyer:

Investigating the case: They gather evidence, interview witnesses, and analyse the prosecution's case to build a strong defence.
Providing legal advice: They will explain your legal rights and options and explore your potential defences, guiding you through the complexities of the criminal justice system.
Negotiating with prosecutors: They may negotiate plea bargains to potentially reduce charges or penalties.
Representing you in court: They will advocate for you in court hearings and trials, presenting your defence arguments.

Q: What is a traffic lawyer?

A: A traffic lawyer is a specialised type of criminal defence lawyer who focuses on traffic offences. These can range from minor speeding tickets to more serious charges like drink driving or driving without a licence. A traffic lawyer can:

Challenge the validity of traffic stops or charges.
Negotiate for reduced penalties or licence suspensions.
Represent you in court for traffic-related offences.

Q: How can I find the best criminal defence lawyer in Sydney?

A: Finding the right lawyer for you depends on your specific circumstances. Here are some tips to find the best legal representation:

Consider your case: Identify the type of offence and choose a lawyer with significant experience handling similar cases.
Research potential lawyers: Read online reviews and testimonials, and check their qualifications and experience.

Contact your preferred lawyers: Schedule consultations to discuss your case and assess their communication style and fees.

Q: How much does a criminal defence lawyer typically cost?

A: Legal fees can vary depending on the complexity of your case, the lawyer's experience, and the length of representation required. Most criminal lawyers offer upfront quotes or hourly rates. Here are some factors impacting the cost:

Severity of the charge: More serious charges typically require more lawyer time and resources, thus leading to higher fees.
Complexity of the case: Cases with intricate details or witness testimony might require more investigation and legal strategy, thus increasing the cost.
Trial vs. Plea Bargain: If your case goes to trial, expect higher fees compared to resolving it through a plea bargain.

Q: Is it possible to get a free, first appointment with my criminal lawyer?

A: Many criminal defence lawyers offer free consultations, allowing you to discuss your case and get an initial assessment. This can help you understand your legal options and decide if the lawyer is indeed a good fit for you.

Q: I’ve been accused of a criminal offence; what should I do?

A: Here's what to do if you've been accused of a crime:

Remain silent: Don't answer any questions from law enforcement officers without your lawyer present.
Contact a criminal defence lawyer immediately: They can advise you on your rights and guide you through the next steps.
Don't tamper with evidence: Don't attempt to destroy or hide anything related to the case.

Be honest with your lawyer: Provide them with all the details of your situation for the best possible defence.

Q: What happens if I can't afford a criminal lawyer?

A: If you can't afford a private lawyer, you may be eligible for legal aid. This government programme provides financial assistance for legal representation in criminal cases.

Q: What are some other things I should know about criminal charges?

The burden of proof lies with the prosecution: They must prove your guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.
You have the right to remain silent: You don't have to answer any questions that could incriminate yourself.

You have the right to a lawyer: You can request legal representation at any point during the legal process.

Q: Should I plead guilty or not guilty?

A: This is a crucial decision best made in consultation with your lawyer. They will assess the evidence, your potential defences, and the likely outcomes to advise you on the best course of action.
