FAQs About Criminal Lawyers Mount Druitt

You should contact a criminal lawyer in Mt Druitt in any of the following situations:

  • If you are arrested: You have the right to speak to a lawyer immediately after an arrest. It’s essential to exercise this right as early as possible to protect your interests.

  • If you are being investigated: If NSW Police have contacted you for questioning, or you’re under investigation, you should seek legal advice about your rights and available options.

  • If you have been charged with a criminal offence: Whether it’s a minor or serious offence, speaking with a criminal defence lawyer ensures that your legal rights are protected throughout the process.

Technically, you can represent yourself in all NSW Courts, with limited exceptions. However, before doing so, it’s important to consider the following:

  • What are my rights, and how do I exercise them?
    Understanding your legal rights and how to properly exercise them is crucial to protecting your interests.

  • What is the court process?
    Court procedures can be complex. Knowing how they operate helps ensure compliance and better outcomes.

  • Do I have a defence, and how do I present it?
    You may have a valid legal defence. Identifying and presenting it effectively requires legal skill and knowledge.

  • How do I negotiate with the prosecution?
    Negotiating with police or the prosecution requires experience in legal advocacy, strategy, and evidence.

  • How do I challenge prosecution evidence?
    You may be entitled to dispute or exclude evidence. This requires a strong understanding of evidentiary rules.

  • What can I present in mitigation of penalty?
    If convicted or pleading guilty, presenting persuasive evidence in mitigation can impact sentencing.

  • What appeal rights do I have?
    If you’re unhappy with the outcome, you may have the right to appeal. Understanding the process is essential.

Yes. At AMA Legal, we represent clients in all types of criminal law matters across all Courts in New South Wales.  Our experienced Mt Druitt criminal lawyers are here to assist at every stage of the process.

The time it takes to resolve a criminal case in NSW can vary significantly depending on several key factors. While the Courts aim to finalise matters promptly, the following elements may impact the duration:

  • The Court hearing the matter: Local Court proceedings are generally faster than those in the District or Supreme Court.

  • Plea entered: A guilty plea may result in a quicker resolution, whereas a not guilty plea usually requires a hearing or trial, extending the timeline.

  • Custody status: Whether the accused is in custody or on bail can affect how quickly a matter is listed and finalised.

  • Court caseload: Backlogs in specific Court registries may delay hearing dates, especially in busier Courts.

  • Witness availability: The availability of prosecution and defence witnesses is often critical to scheduling and progress.

  • Negotiations: Extended negotiations with the prosecution can impact how quickly a matter progresses to hearing.

  • Pre-trial applications: In higher courts, the need for pre-trial motions, evidentiary rulings, or legal arguments may add complexity and time.

If you’re facing charges in Blacktown, Mt Druitt, Penrith or greater NSW, our criminal defence lawyers at AMA Legal can guide you through the process and keep you informed about expected timeframes for your matter.

If you are arrested by Police in NSW, follow these steps to protect your rights:

  • Remain calm: Do not resist arrest. Stay composed and avoid any confrontation.

  • Follow instructions: Cooperate with Police by listening carefully to their directions and complying respectfully.

  • Ask to speak to a lawyer: Before answering questions or participating in a Police interview, request to speak with a criminal defence lawyer in Mt Druitt. This ensures you receive proper legal advice and your rights are protected from the outset.
