Drug Offence Lawyer
Don't Let Your Future Be Defined by a Drug Charge

Facing Drug Charges? You're Not Alone
The moment you’re accused of a drug offence, your world can feel like it’s crumbling. The fear, the confusion, the uncertainty about your future—it can be overwhelming. The legal system is complex, the penalties severe, and the stigma can feel inescapable. But even in the darkest moments, there’s a light. At Sibley Lawyers, we’re that light, offering unwavering support and expert legal representation when you need it most.
Even if it is your first offence, the outcome can be serious. Depending on the quantity of the drug and the circumstances, the Police may allege it was possessed for a commercial purpose. If commerciality is proved, the outcome will be determined in the Supreme Court and the outcomes can be severe. Where possible, we will reduce the charge to get you the best outcome.
If this is your first offence, and the amount is relatively trivial, we can assist you to achieve an order pursuant to s 19 of the Penalties and Sentences Act, where no conviction is recorded and you are diverted from the Criminal Justice System. A Police caution may also be open.

What is trafficking?
In order to make out the offence of trafficking, the Crown must prove that you were engaged in the business of selling a dangerous drug. This can occur on the back of just one act of supplying a dangerous drug, but usually the instances of supply are more frequent and make up particulars of the trafficking. Just because you have been charged with trafficking, does not mean this is the most appropriate charge. We have had success in many cases of having the charge dropped down to individual supplies. This can make a significant difference for you on the penalty.

Kieran Strongman2025-02-03 Justin Sibley gave me my life back. In 2020, my Ex-wife began a 3 year assailment where she weaponised the domestic violence system for the purpose of controlling a property settlement. Had it not been for Justin and his team, she may have succeeded. Justin expertly dismantled the web of lies that she spun through countless court appearances at multiple locations- Domestic violence applications and applications to vary that went all the way to trial, as well as a criminal charge. Throughout these 3 years of hell, Justin was a godsend- He was calm, confident, and extremely knowledgeable. After being shellshocked, panicked, and devastated that this was happening to me, Justin got my head straight and educated me on the process and how we would deal with it. From the early days I felt confident that justice would prevail with Justin on my side. From Justins early communications with Police prosecutions, to his expert cross examination of the complainant and witnesses in Court, not once did I feel I would get anything other than a desirable outcome. One of the most memorable experiences in my life was watching and listening to Justins cross examinations- The way he would slowly and subtly lock someone into a version of events or a lie, then some time later, absolutely dismantle it in a way they just could not see coming- It was an absolute pleasure to watch. Justin did such an impeccable job in handling my matters, that not only did we beat the 'balance of probabilities'- but Justin destroyed it- All DV matters against me were found to be frivolous and vexatious, and the Magistrate was scathing of the Police and the 'aggrieved'/complainant. Jutin didnt just win, he didnt show the allegations 'probably didnt happen'- He proved that every single one of them did NOT happen. I can not see how any solicitor could have done a better job or got a better outcome than Justin did- It was a resounding win, to the point where Justin had costs above the scale awarded in my favour. This is exceptionally rare in DV/civil matters, and was an outstanding result for me- I got my life back without the financial devastation so many suffer having to finance their defence in these type of matters. Justins comprehensive and absolute win in these DV matters echoed through to my criminal charge which dragged on after the DV matters were dismissed- Justin was successful in obtaining a very rare 'permanent stay' of proceedings, based on his resounding win and total dismantling of the DV allegations. If you're up against it, talk to Justin. It's not just a job for him- I truly felt that Justin had my back, believed in me, and wanted to help me. Thank you Justin. Meah Davis2024-10-22 I cannot express enough gratitude for the exceptional work Justin and the team did during an extremely difficult time. From the very beginning, they were not only professional and knowledgeable, but also incredibly compassionate and understanding. Their expertise and strategic thinking resulted in the best possible outcome for my case, something I didn't think was achievable. They were always available to answer my questions, explain the legal process in a way I could understand, and made me feel supported every step of the way. I highly recommend them to anyone in need of a dedicated and skilled attorney. Timothy Wyer2024-10-01 It's very rare, that you leave court with a smile on your face. Thank's to Justin and the team at Sibley Law. We got a win and some money back as well, I highly recommend them! Dallas Spillane2024-09-03 Today I had Justin pull the best outcome one could imagine I'm at home tonight and at work tomorrow cause of his dedication to what he does and that got me the best outcome in court thank you Justin Kelly Jewell2024-04-10 Highly recommend Sibley's Lawyers. Extremely professional. Their communication is excellent. Very thorough in their approach and attention to detail. Marama Montgomery2024-03-27 Justin, Nick, and the entire team at Sibley Lawyers were absolutely phenomenal in handling my legal matter. Their expertise, dedication, and professionalism made a challenging situation much more manageable. From the initial consultation to the resolution of my case, they provided unwavering support, guidance, and advocacy every step of the way. Not only were they highly knowledgeable in their field, but they also demonstrated genuine care and concern for my well-being throughout the process. They took the time to listen to my concerns, explain complex legal concepts in a clear and understandable manner, and always kept me informed and updated on the progress of my case. Their attention to detail, strategic approach, and relentless pursuit of justice yielded a favorable outcome that exceeded my expectations. I am immensely grateful for their hard work, diligence, and unwavering commitment to achieving the best possible result for me. I cannot recommend Justin, Nick, and the team at Sibley Lawyers highly enough. If you're in need of legal representation, look no further—they are truly exceptional. Thank you, Sibley Lawyers, for your outstanding service and support during a challenging time. Mitch Hetherington2023-09-26 Highly recommended Caelon Woodward2023-07-14 Good team, would recommend for stuff like speeding offences. Sara Christofis2023-07-13 I highly recommend Justin and Nick and the team at Sibley Lawyers. From my initial consultation I felt comfortable. They were professional, approachable and were able to achieve a far better outcome at Court than I was expecting. Carson Harvey2023-07-02 Sibley Lawyers represented me with my work cover claim. After a two year fight with work cover and my employer, Sibley Lawyers came through for me with a win. I can’t thank them enough!!!
