At Williams Barristers and Solicitors we are proud of our reputation in achieving the best outcomes for clients in criminal matters.
We believe that prison sentences are often counterproductive for both client’s rehabilitation and society in general. Sentences of imprisonment should only be imposed if all reasonable alternatives are exhausted; however, over the last 10 years inmate numbers have risen by up to 80% despite there being a reduction in the overall crime rate.
Attorney-General John Rau has recently proposed the implementation of new sentencing alternatives to imprisonment including home detention.
Williams Barristers and Solicitors welcomes this positive change for clients and the community.
