Steven Mercael was contacted and requested for urgent assistance for a bail application at Fairfield Local Court. Our client was granted bail on the very first court date for an extremely serious offence of dangerous driving occasioning death.
Steven presented the best possible application for bail which included extremely stringent bail condition. Further, Steven showed the significant weaknesses in the case presented by the police on the day. These were difficult circumstances for everyone involved but it was just a horrible accident. The matter then proceeded to the district court where the client beat the serious charge and pleaded guilty to negligent driving occasioning death and ultimately avoided a gaol sentence and was able to return to his family.
