PAX LEGAL

Are you looking for a criminal defence lawyer in and around Rotorua? Pax Legal is the practice of Pavee Patanasiri, barrister, providing services in criminal law in the Rotorua region and surrounding areas. Pavee is a PAL2 legal aid provider and welcomes all private enquiries (as a barrister, Pavee is required to be instructed by a solicitor in most cases). 

Facing a criminal charge is stressful. The legal system is complicated. There may be significant consequences for your life and freedom. Having a good lawyer who listens - one who is both effective and dedicated to your cause - can make a real difference. Pavee is committed to achieving the best outcome for you. 

If you have been charged with a Criminal or Traffic offence by the Police or any other government agency, if you have had your firearms licence revoked by the Police, or if Police wish to talk to you about something, Pavee can help.

Pavee can help you ask the Court for:

1. A discharge without conviction in certain cases (where you accept responsibility but ask to not have a conviction noted in your record); or

2. A limited licence (so that you are allowed to drive in certain circumstances - usually for work) if you are convicted of certain driving offences; or

3. A sentence of community work instead of being disqualified if you are convicted of certain driving offences.
