Thanks to her I got the best possible result
I had fewer than 24 hours before my court appearance and I called Sydney Criminal Lawyers, hoping for the best. I was able to consult with Julianne that afternoon and she expertly guided me through the entire process end to end, and I finally felt at ease regarding my matter. Thanks to her I got the best possible result that I initially thought was almost unattainable. Looking back, I'm so glad I decided to go this route, as the alternatives would have been so much more uncertain and stressful. Especially with my tight time constraints, who knows what could have happened had I not contacted Sydney Criminal Lawyers. Julianne made me feel that I was in very capable hands. She made herself available for contact the entire day and night for any questions or materials I had, and she was very quick to respond. She knew almost exactly what would go down in the courtroom. She's a superhero! Thank you!

All I could have hoped for
Julianne managed to obtain a non-conviction at the District Court appeal, which is all I could have hoped for...Even though the initial Magistrate’s ruling was disappointing, Julianne felt she would be able to obtain a better result at an appeal at the District Court given my circumstances, and she was right! She has been very reassuring throughout the whole process, and an absolute pleasure to work with.

Direct and to the point
Julianne is fantastic. Taking over my case just the day before the hearing, she was very attentive and caring, showing great compassion. Best of all, we achieved a better than expected outcome. Julianne's approach is direct and to the point, while always showing a caring and friendly approach. I agree with another review which states she presented much better then some senior solicitors on the day. Thank you Julianne.
