Urgent Bail Applications
Being arrested and held in custody is one of the most stressful experiences a person can face. Every hour in custody matters, and securing bail as quickly as possible is essential. Our criminal defence lawyers have extensive experience in urgent bail applications across the Magistrates' Court, Supreme Court, and after-hours bail hearings. We work swiftly to build the strongest possible bail application and get you or your loved one released.
Immediate Steps to Take
Exercise your right to silence — do not answer police questions without a lawyer present.
Call Vitt Legal on 1300 24 11 44 immediately upon arrest or as soon as possible.
Ask the police to contact your lawyer before any formal interview.
Provide your lawyer with details of any sureties, accommodation, and employment.
Do not sign any documents or agree to any conditions without legal advice.
Our lawyer will attend the police station or court to make the bail application on your behalf.
Our Process
Urgent Contact & Briefing
We receive your call and gather essential details about the arrest, charges, and the accused person's circumstances for the bail application.
Bail Application Preparation
We prepare a compelling bail application addressing all bail considerations under the Bail Act, including proposed conditions, sureties, and compliance plans.
Court or After-Hours Hearing
Our lawyer appears at the Magistrates' Court or arranges an after-hours bail hearing before a bail justice to argue for your release.
Bail Conditions Management
Once bail is granted, we explain all conditions thoroughly and ensure you understand your obligations to remain compliant.
Ongoing Defence Strategy
We continue working on your criminal defence, preparing for committal or trial, and can apply to vary bail conditions if circumstances change.
