Supporting Mental Health in the Legal Profession💚

At Emma Turnbull Lawyers, we recognise the importance of prioritising mental health and wellbeing, both in our professional and personal lives.

We are proud to share that Joseph Adamo of our office has recently completed Mental Health First Aid training, strengthening our commitment to creating a supportive and understanding workplace.

Working in criminal defence can be challenging, and we recognise the importance of having people around us who are willing to listen, offer support and encourage open conversations about mental health.

Congratulations to Joseph on taking this important step towards supporting the wellbeing of those around him.

A Meaningful Outcome | Dignity and Compassion in Sentencing

At Emma Turnbull Lawyers, we believe that everyone deserves to be treated with dignity and compassion, regardless of their circumstances.

Our firm recently represented a longstanding client who received a terminal medical diagnosis while serving a custodial sentence.

In light of our client's rapidly deteriorating health, our team urgently sought leave to appeal the sentence out of time, arguing that the exceptional circumstances warranted reconsideration of the sentence.

Despite opposition to the application, the Court accepted our submissions, granted leave to appeal and resentenced our client to time served.

Shea Grant of Emma Turnbull Lawyers appeared in the matter, helping to secure an outcome that allows our client to spend their remaining days outside a correctional facility, with access to appropriate medical care.

Dignity in death is something everyone deserves.

We are incredibly proud to have assisted our client in achieving this meaningful outcome, and our thoughts are with them and their loved ones during this difficult time.
