trials and hearings

 

'Presumed innocent until proven guilty' before a jury of one's peers.

Trials are not simple. They are a complex process involving witnesses and testing whether they come up to the required standard of proof beyond a reasonable doubt before the jury and the Judge. The Evidence Act governs the way evidence is admitted, adduced and used against the accused. In 2008 there were 22 new changes to the Evidence Act.

The truth is reliant upon evidence yet the evidence may not come up to proof. Dom Velcic & Co are by nature a firm of advocates. We pride ourselves on our ability within the courtroom. Hearings, trials and advocacy are what we are best at and why individuals are referred to us by other lawyers. we enlist the aid of other professionals such as psychologists, private investigators and other experts to assist in your defence.
