Ogbuehi Lawyers

Bail Applications

Operating across Western Sydney suburbs like Parramatta, Lakemba, Auburn, Bankstown and Eastwood, we provide experienced legal counsel and effective representation throughout the bail application process. Our deep familiarity with local courts and their bail determination practices proves invaluable.

Securing release on bail pending the resolution of charges is often crucial for maintaining employment, fulfilling family responsibilities, and working closely with us to prepare the most robust possible defense. Our role is to compile and present the strongest possible case justifying our client’s temporary freedom in the community during proceedings.

This involves highlighting ties to the local area through stable residence, employment, education commitments or involvement with community organizations.  We also emphasize any assessment indicating low risk of flight due to personal, professional or financial circumstances anchoring our clients in Western Sydney.

Importantly, we evaluate the actual evidence against the accused along with prosecutor’s arguments to forcefully advocate how release on bail does not endanger community safety across suburbs like Auburn, Bankstown or Parramatta. Tailoring bail applications to each situation is vital.

When considering applications, courts assess various factors related to risks like failure to appear, reoffending or interfering with witnesses or evidence. The nature and severity of alleged offenses obviously carries substantial weight, as do any prior criminal histories that could demonstrate patterns requiring heightened restrictions or supervision.

Why should you engage a criminal justice / criminal lawyer to work with you?

Bail application involves an agreement between our client and court to attend court in nearest time limit to answer a charge against our client and can also include a requirement to comply with few conditions. Our professionalism comes in when the court gives a rigid bail conditions to our client, we can apply for variation of bail condition by an authorised justice regarding those conditions. It is our duty to convince the court if applicable that our client will not (a) fail to appear at any proceedings for the offence, or (b) commit a serious offence, or (c) endanger the safety of victims, individuals or the community, or (d) interfere with witnesses or evidence.
