It has been some time since I put up a post in this page. There have been a lot of obstacles for many throughout the last 12 months. Some obstacles are avoidable and some are not.

As many of you have seen I have posted on my private page my level of disgust and distain for the flagrant disregard politicians have shown in the erosion of people's rights whilst letting big business through with a different set of rules.

The border issues especially on the NSW/QLD border have been handled in such a manner that compassion, empathy, integrity and humanity have been lost whilst the QLD Government lets the money makers through.

As from this point in time I would like it to be known that if you receive a fine or court attendance notice in NSW for Covid breaches, and the breaches were conducted due to personal family stressors then I will represent you for nothing (Pro-bono) . Clearly I am not permitted to cross the border into QLD at this point in time to act in the QLD courts, so I ask if there are any Solicitors in QLD prepared to do the same then please let me know so I can refer people to you . I also ask for any Solicitors on the NSW/Vic borders.

It is clear that we as a people are experiencing stressful periods of lockdown, isolation, financial crisis and separation from loved ones. These matters are only the tip of the iceberg with consequences such as depression, mental health issues, su***de and family breakdown following on.

At a time when many in our communities need to be shown support, respect and empathy - they are shown anything but.

So if you have legal issues arising out of this shambles of Gov't protocols then please feel free to contact me. If I can not assist you then I will find someone who will.

Two sides to every story

THINK BEFORE YOU DRINK!
Over the Christmas period there have been amendments to the legislation pertaining to drink driving. If you are charged with a mid range PCA offence after 3 December 2018 then it will be an automatic Interlock order made and you will have to have an interlock device fitted to your car and will be on an interlock licence for a considerable period of time (discretion of the court) . Even if it is your first offence. As such you will not be able to drive any vehicle without a device fitted. This has far reaching affects for anyone who may have to drive another vehicle for work. Despite having your licence - you will not be able to maintain your current employment if driving is a requirement.

If you decide you do not want to an interlock order and apply to the court for an interlock exemption then you will be automatically disqualified for a period of 5 years.

So please think before you drink. 5 years off the tack is a lot to pay for a drink to many. (.08)

OK this year I am putting out an early Christmas message - Why? Because the Christmas parties and celebrations are starting to happen and believe it or not I often hear from the same people year after year telling me they keep on getting hassled out by the cops (especially over the festive season). So my solution to this is simple- if you do not want to be hassled by the cops then stop doing stupid stuff. Police tend to get called to your place if there is a domestic going on so if you have a criminal history showing that you seem to get busted during festive moments and upon reflection you realise that this is when you consume alcohol or drugs - then - lay of the alcohol and/or drugs this season. Unless you make change to your tradition of overdoing it then history will repeat itself.

If you want to see me then please feel free to pick up the phone or send me a message - you do not have to be charged with a criminal offence to do so. Try doing something different this season. Instead of showing members of the local community that you are a shocking drunk or a shocker when taking your favourite substance just have one season away from it and you will be surprised at the difference. I know your partners and friends will be !

Be safe folks and remember do not drink drive the coming season.
Regards

Just to clear the air on this subject

The Supreme Court has thrown out a $1.8 million workplace negligence suit, rejecting that a supervisor farting at an employee was bullying.

For those of you out there who have lengthy periods of disqualification from holding a drivers licence please note there have been changes in the Legislation that are effective this week. If you have had two years of not offending then please contact me. There are now avenues available through the Court system to make applications to have the remainder of your disqualification periods removed. Please note in some circumstances you will need to have not committed any offences for a four years period. Either way - the opportunity is now here.
