Criminal lawyer Joseph Correy has continued his run of successful section 32 applications under the Mental Health (Forensic Provisions) Act 1990. On Friday, Mr Correy was successful in having a charge of reckless wounding, involving a nurse being stabbed multiple times, dismissed pursuant to s 32 without a conviction being recorded against his client. The case was extremely complicated, involving the criminal defences of automatism and mental illness. Other recent dismissals Mr Correy has obtained under section 32 include dealing with $42,000 of proceeds of crime and multiple charges of assaulting police officers.

We met Our solicitor at his Parramatta office, his straightforward approach, legal expertise, and compassion made a great impression on us, and we retained his services that very day. A significant amount of work was done over the 15 months of the case and Steven's dedication and commitment never waned. As new circumstances arose, he dealt with the time sensitive matters without delay. His communication was always prompt, clear and concise. Steven laid out different scenarios from different angles of how things could go, so there was no ambiguity about anything. Being well informed and knowing what to expect helped us prepare for each court hearing. Steven really cared about my niece's case and gave her sound advice about what she needed to do for herself and for her case, and she always felt fully supported, and less anxious after speaking with him. I truly believe if not for Steven we would not have gotten the much needed result that we were desperately hoping for. I am so grateful that my precious niece is safe and sound with my family and has a positive future to look forward to. We entrusted my niece into Steven's most capable hands, and he fought for her at every turn. I highly recommend Steven, he helped us in our time of great need. He is an exceptional lawyer, and is undoubtedly a person of strong character. He will do everything within his power to obtain the best outcome, and he certainly did this for my niece. Thanks also to Joseph, Deng, Ash, Michael, who Steven organised to also appear before the court for my niece. This is a great team of caring lawyers and this law firm is indeed second to none! Thank you so much Steven for everything and God Bless! read less

I was referred by my Aunty who was on old school friend of Joe's and she had nothing but the highest praises for both himself and his Law Group. This was my first time experiencing the Australian Court system first hand and to say I was nervous would be an understatement. However I was instantly reassured by Joes calming deminer and his immense knowledge of the law. After hearing my side of the case he did not hesitate to help me. He created a strong defense which saw me off any charges and connected me with professionals who impacted my case in a positive way. His services have genuinely changed my life for the better and this review shows only a fraction of my appreciation. Thank you Joe and Australian Criminal Law Group for helping myself and others who have ended up in similar situations. We truly appreciate the services you provide and hope you continue to help those who need it. Francis Smith read less
