If you believe a court outcome was incorrect, you may be able to appeal your conviction or sentence. Criminal appeals in Victoria are time-sensitive and must be based on specific legal grounds, not simply disagreement with the outcome.
At Anaki Lawyers, you speak directly with a criminal defence lawyer from your first call. You receive clear advice on whether you have grounds to appeal and what your prospects of success are.
We act in appeals across the Magistrates’ Court, County Court and Supreme Court of Victoria.
Anaki Lawyers assists clients with a range of appeal matters, including:
Each appeal depends on strict legal criteria and must identify an error in law, fact, or the exercise of sentencing discretion.
Appeals are not a rehearing of the case. The appellate court reviews whether the original decision involved a legal, procedural or sentencing error.
Get clear advice, strong defence, and tailored guidance from a senior lawyer to protect your rights and future.
