The law relating to sexual offences and the evidentiary rules surrounding their prosecution are complex. They require specialist knowledge to ensure compliance with practice and procedure. In all prosecutions, case specific preparation is essential and will often include applications to access confidential records between the alleged victim and DHHS, psychologists, counsellors or other educators. In recent times there has been an increase in the number of historical offences being charged; that is offences that occurred, in many cases, up to decades earlier. The team at Emma Turnbull Lawyers are experienced in researching and diligently reviewing material to find the one needle in a hay stack to support the defence.
