Representing yourself is a right available to any accused person, but hiring a criminal barrister assists you because:

• A criminal barrister is a legal practitioner who is able to analyse and assess your individual case, provide tailored advice (plead guilty / not guilty), negotiate on your behalf to have charges dropped or reduced and argue you best case.
• Having a criminal barrister represent you in front of the Magistrate or Judge demonstrates that you take the matter that you have been charged with seriously, and are unlikely to re-offend.

The Asset Confiscation Laws in Australia are complex. It is suggested that you make contact to obtain advice.

Within the Proceeds of Crime Act, there are options to revoke a Restraining Order, Exclude Assets from Restraining Orders, Revoke a Forfeiture Order, Exclude Assets from a Forfeiture Order, obtain a Compensation Order, a Hardship Order and/or obtain an Allowance for Expenses.
