Bail Applications & Appeals

Bail is about liberty and preparation. We file fast, persuasive applications under the Bail Act 2013 (NSW), addressing show-cause (if it applies), unacceptable risk, and workable conditions such as verified residence, surety, curfew, reporting and treatment.
 
If bail is refused, we prepare a variation, a Supreme Court application, or an appeal with fresh material.
What we put before the Court
– Risk plans that work. We provide real safeguards: stable housing, responsible sureties, treatment plans and supervision so the Court can be confident to grant release.
 
– Show-cause strategy. We point to weaknesses in the brief, delay, rehabilitation steps and your personal situation to overcome show-cause where it applies.
 
– Domestic Violence settings. With stricter practice in Domestic Violence cases, we tailor conditions that protect complainants while keeping conditions no more onerous than needed.
 
Why Spice Law

Immediate in-custody support and clear risk-management plans. We organise family, treatment and supervision supports so the Court has confidence to release you.
