Our client, a bookkeeper, was accused of dishonestly obtaining over $9,000 from her employer through alleged unauthorised transactions. She was facing multiple deception-related charges and potential jail time.
We conducted a forensic review of the financial records and identified several legitimate payments and discrepancies in the complainant’s reporting. We engaged with prosecution early, submitting a detailed brief arguing the transactions were either authorised or incapable of proof to the criminal standard.
All charges were withdrawn before the hearing. Our client avoided a criminal record and kept her professional accreditation.
This outcome reflects our dedication to detail, early strategic advice, and skilled negotiation—hallmarks of representation by Elbob & Stephenson Legal.
