Commonwealth Charges

BlackMenuBar.jpg, 340B

Have you been charged with a Commonwealth criminal charge? We have an extensive number of articles about charges and other general articles on this website.

The Commonwealth Department of Public Prosecutions lay commonwealth charges in a broad number of areas. They can be from terrorism or importing drugs charges, to charges relating to businesses and companies .

We have great experience in these matters. We acted for the main accused in the longest running Commonwealth criminal prosecution. We have a comprehensive familiarity with their systems (such as the Promis database they use for large briefs). This gives us an advantage in Commonwealth charges of being aware of the material they will not have provided you.
