“Life really is about good relationships. I have been around Victoria’s Court system for many years, and have built up some solid relationships based on trust and integrity. Life is stressful enough without having a court case hanging over your head. So once we meet up and I get my instructions from you, you can sit back and relax. Time to forgive yourself and learn from the experience.  There is nothing more you need to do except come to court on the day, and perhaps organize some reference material or other reports.  I will leave no stone unturned in fully investigating your case, and getting you the best outcome.  I will listen carefully and not judge you.    All our conversations will be strictly confidential and private.”

Remember, if any potential prosecution is to be defended successfully, the sooner work begins on your defence the better.  Don’t be tempted to forget about it and hope it will go away, it won’t !!!
