If an allegation of criminal conduct has been made about you, even before you are contacted by police you should immediately get legal advice from a criminal lawyer.

The Doyles Guide annual rankings for lawyers was recently announced, and we’re excited to share that Stary Norton Halphen and our team of criminal lawyers have received multiple rankings.

Congratulations to Rob Stary for 25 years of criminal law specialist accreditation.

It is really important to get advice from a criminal lawyer who has experience with the type of legal issue that you are facing.  

The September 11 attacks in the United States by Al Qaeda changed the way western countries perceived the threat of terrorism. Before the events of 2001, Australia had no national terrorism laws. But by the end of 2020, it would have more terror-related laws in place than any other comparable nation.

Former North Melbourne coach Dani Laidley has been backed by two of the club’s former stars in court as she promised good behaviour in the wake of stalking charges.

Mr Roberts’ solicitor, Simon Moodie, says that his client welcomes the decision of the Court, and looks forward to a fair trial. Given that there will be a re-trial he makes no further comment at this time.

Victorian AFL great Dani Laidley will have a drug charge dismissed if she writes a letter of thanks to police. The former North Melbourne coach was addressed as Ms Laidley after her lawyer Rob Stary explained his client had undergone a gender transition since her last appearance.
