Need a Criminal Lawyer in Auckland? Start Here.
If you've just been charged or you're under investigation the first question running through your head is probably: “Do I need a lawyer?”
Let me make it simple: Yes, you do. And you need one fast.
I’m Anj Singh, a criminal defence lawyer based in Auckland. I work with people from all walks of life who never imagined they’d be dealing with police, court dates, or criminal charges. Some are guilty. Some are innocent. All of them need protection, guidance, and someone in their corner.
This blog is for anyone in Auckland asking the question: “Where do I start?”
Step One: Don’t Panic Get Informed
Whether it’s a minor charge like shoplifting or something more serious like assault, theft, or drug offences, you need to understand what you’re facing.
Don’t talk to police without legal advice
Don’t plead guilty just to “get it over with”
Don’t assume your charge isn’t serious
Even a low-level conviction can leave a permanent mark on your criminal record. It could impact your job, your travel, your visa, or your children. That’s why the first step is to get informed and that starts with calling a criminal lawyer.
What I Do as Your Criminal Lawyer
You’re not hiring a lawyer just to fill out forms. You’re hiring someone to:
Explain your rights clearly
Analyse the police evidence
Find weaknesses in the case
Negotiate with the prosecution
Fight for diversion, discharge, or reduced charges
Represent you in court confidently and without judgment
I’ve helped hundreds of people get through the court process with less stress, less damage, and better outcomes than they thought possible.
What Types of Charges Do I Handle?
I deal with a wide range of criminal and traffic cases, including:
Assault and domestic violence
Drug possession and supply
Theft, burglary, and dishonesty charges
Driving while disqualified, drink driving, and careless driving
Protection order breaches
Fraud and white-collar offences
Youth offending and first-time charges
If it involves the police and a courtroom, I’ve probably dealt with it and I know what works.
Do You Really Need a Lawyer?
Yes. Here’s why:
The system isn’t always fair
Police and prosecutors have legal teams you should too
One mistake in court can cost you far more than the legal fee
You wouldn’t walk into a surgery without a doctor. So why walk into court without a defence?
