Marc’s background in Criminal Investigation and Police Prosecution has given him a detailed understanding of police procedure and the role of forensic and other physical evidence: precisely the type of evidence on which many criminal cases hinge. Marc is among a small and select group of solicitors in Australia who can claim not only this academic expertise but also practical experience, in addition to their training in law.
This unique background means that Marc has been involved in the investigation and conduct of more murder and attempt murder matters in the Courts than almost any other solicitor on the Central Coast. This knowledge flows through to and benefits clients, even those charged with less serious offences.
Marc is able to meticulously review all evidence gathered by police, from the calculations and determinations made by Accident Investigation Police to the detailed analysis of bloodstain evidence by Crime Scene Investigators. Marc is also trained in the use and interpretation of fingerprint evidence, and qualified in the forensic science used in cases of suspected arson.
Having served as both Crime Scene Examiner and Police Prosecutor, Marc is not only able to give you an insight into the evidence the police gather and the procedures they must follow, but is also able to explain how your case might benefit from those procedures, and the evidence police have collected.
The overlap between adult and children’s criminal matters is significant. Marc has been just as successful in the area of children’s criminal law as he has been in adult criminal jurisdictions. For this reason, Marc has regularly been sought out by anxious parents needing expert advice and skilled representation in Children’s Court matters.
