Criminal Law

Story and Associates represent people who are going to Court charged with a criminal offence and who wish to plead guilty. If you wish to plead not guilty then we are able to direct you to legal practitioners who practice in the criminal jurisdiction in defended matters.

David Story has decades of experience in delivering pleas of mitigation in both the Supreme Court and Magistrates Court.

David has appeared for clients who have been charged with, among other offences: –

• Stealing
• Driving Whilst under the Influence (DUI)
• Possession of prohibited drugs
• Possession of trafficable quantity of drugs
• Obtaining a financial advantage by deception
• Traffic offences
• Assault
• Breach of domestic violence orders

It is our view that having legal representation at Court when pleading guilty can make a substantial difference to the severity of the penalty.

When you appear in Court, pleading guilty, it is important that the facts surrounding the incident are able to be explained to the Court and information about the defendant is provided to the Court to enable the Court to come to a fair assessment of punishment.
