Bail Applications
Trusted Lawyers for Bail Applications
You are entitled to the presumption of innocence, as well as the presumption of bail where bail has been objected to by the police. It is often the case that bail is objected to quickly, without proper consideration to the merits of the objection. Bail applications require appropriate evidence to support the application, and careful advocacy. Police often make extraordinary claims in sworn affidavits, which should not just be accepted. The impact that deprivation of liberty has on a person is extreme.
Strategic Advocacy to Secure Your Release on Bail
We assist clients who have been arrested and had their bail denied by a Watchhouse, and are appearing before a Magistrate. We will not allow a Magistrate to make a decision under the Bail Act without first placing appropriate material before them. This includes supporting affidavit material. We approach all of our bail applications as you would expect of a Barrister, and will not simply make submissions without evidence.
Of course, Magistrates can make the wrong decision, often where an individual has attempted to apply for bail themselves or with a Duty Lawyer without supporting material. We assist clients to show a material change of circumstances where appropriate, or to make an application to the Supreme Court. Get in contact now if you have been arrested, or a loved one is being held by the police.

Professional and thorough
I highly recommend Sibley Lawyers for anyone dealing with workplace issues, including personal injuries. After my union lawyers refused to support me in a workplace dispute, Justin Sibley and Jack McDonald stepped in and made all the difference. They were incredibly knowledgeable, responsive, and truly committed to my case. Despite the lack of support from my union, to which I had paid fees for 13 years, Justin and Jack worked tirelessly to ensure I was treated fairly and helped me achieve a positive outcome. Their expertise in employment law and genuine dedication gave me the confidence to move forward. If you’re looking for lawyers who will fight for you when others won’t, Sibley Lawyers is the firm to trust!

Not only does he understand the law and all of its complex mechanics, but he has the ability to win with his attention to detail, unwaivering knowledge and courtroom charisma.

Sibley law and especially Nick Ware are amazing and I could not recommend a better criminal defence lawyer.
He’s professional, personable and very thorough. Always put my worries and mind at ease with his professional advice and very contactable, not fobbed off to a secretary.
The outcome of what I wanted, happened and I was also upfront and honest from the start with no judgement whatsoever from Nick.
