📲 SHARE THIS with your mates! Most people don’t know this! 🛑🚔 Can NSW police ask you to unlock and view your phone? Being pulled over does not automatically give police the right to look at or search your phone.

They can ask. But asking and having a legal power to access are two different things.

So what happens if you say no? 👀
Part 2 coming next.

⚖️ This is general legal information only, not legal advice. Police powers depend on the circumstances of each case. Seek independent legal advice if needed.

Apparently lawyers are always too busy to date.
Not necessarily. I can be very accommodating after hours. 😏 And unlike legal work, overtime is complimentary. 😂⚖️ Dating a lawyer has its benefits.

📍 Sydney Criminal & Traffic Lawyer — excellent in court, apparently still under review in dating.

I spend all day arguing. I’m not coming home to do overtime. 😂⚖️ Give me good food, a glass of w**e, some affection… and pretend my dramatic court stories are fascinating. 😏🍷

Can you plead guilty and still avoid a criminal conviction or drivers licence disqualification? ⚖️

A Section 10 dismissal in NSW can allow a court to deal with an offence without recording a criminal conviction. For some traffic offences, it may also mean avoiding a licence disqualification.

But getting a Section 10 is not automatic, even for a first offence. The Court considers a range of factors, and proper preparation and persuasive submissions can be critical.
If avoiding a conviction or protecting your driver licence matters, getting advice from an experienced NSW criminal and traffic lawyer early can make a real difference to how your case is prepared and presented.

Being a lawyer is basically learning how to say what you really think… respectfully. 😂⚖️. ❓What’s something you’d love to say in court… but would have to say “respectfully”? 😂

18 years later and I’m still explaining why I can’t “control the entire justice system”. 😂⚖️
I can only work with the laws, courts and facts I’m given. The fighting part? That I can do. 😎🥊

If police want to speak to you about anything then you need to understand this. You have the right to remain silent.
Most people think ‘explaining themselves’ will help.
In reality, it often creates the very evidence used against them.
Police interviews aren’t casual conversations, they are recorded and used in court.

You can be respectful and still say:
‘I’d like legal advice before answering any questions.’

Knowing when to speak, and when not to, can make all the difference. My name is Chadi and I’m a Criminal Defence Lawyer with 18 years experience.
