SCL LAWYER
Robert Hanson is a highly-respected Senior Associate Criminal Lawyer with 15 years of experience focusing on criminal defence.
He has built and refined his ability to formulate and implement effective defence strategies during his years working with a number of criminal defence law firms, and well as his own legal practice.
Robert is a people’s advocate. He is imbued with a deep passion for social justice and empathy, and is tenacious when it comes to fighting for his valued clients.
He has successfully represented clients at all levels of the criminal justice system, and in all manner of criminal and traffic law cases, from less-serious cases such as drink driving, drug possession and small supply, less-serious assaults and AVOs all the way up to commercial drug cases, sexual assaults, assaults involving grievous bodily harm, complex fraud, money laundering and proceeds of crime, and homicide cases.
Robert leaves no stone unturned when it comes to the preparation of complex cases, dissecting the available material, identifying inconsistencies, deficiencies as well as legal defences that may be available, and accessing a network of forensic and medical experts to provide clients with the highest quality legal representation.
He has a long and proven track record of consistently having charges withdrawn at an early stage in the proceedings or dismissed in court in the event the prosecution proceeds to hearing or trial, as well as downgrading charges to less-serious ones when the evidence is overwhelming, and achieving lenient results such as ‘non conviction orders’ when clients wish to plead guilty.
Robert is an integral member of Sydney’s best criminal defence team.
Professional and thoroughly straightforward
Mr. Robert Hanson represented me, he's very professional and thoroughly straightforward.
Helped me have a successful outcome
I recently had engaged Sydney Criminal Lawyers to represent me in court on a complex case and I was assigned to Robert Hanson from the Sydney Office opposite Downing Centre Court who was excellent in his preparations and negotiations with the prosecutors.
I highly recommend this firm for any legal issues that you need assistance with as they are efficient, reliable, honest and very professional.
Robert’s performance in court along with his advocacy and guidance beforehand helped me collect the necessary documents that helped me have a successful outcome.
SCL took me on and not only did the other side conceded our appeal but we also won costs
Record Breaking Result!
SCL performed the unthinkable miracle for my case. I have discussed my matter with a few lawyers and ALL of them said zero chance of winning my appeal. SCL took me on and not only did the other side conceded our appeal but we also won costs. Unheard of ever! How did we do it? First of all, believe in yourself. If you know your story and the truth, fight for it. Robert Hanson made me feel very comfortable and supported me even though our case looked weak at the start. Our barrister Wali Shukoor thought strategically outside the box. He pressed the CDPP so hard for additional evidence that were missing in the original case, that when it was provided, it proved our case that CDPP had no case at all from the start. Robert and Wali will take on your case because they believe in you and want to help you even if your chances are slim. Unlike other lawyers and barristers who will only take cases where it can help their success percentage and their reputation. Furthermore, their fees were reasonable and fixed. Any variation of agreed fees are explained thoroughly and are still reasonable compared to the other lawyers. Do not hesitate to use SCL and don’t fall for other fancy looking over priced lawyers. At SCL you are a name and not a number. You have 1 life and 1 chance, don’t risk it with anyone else.
