What's heard here

The Melbourne Magistrates'

Melbourne Magistrates' Court hears criminal charges, traffic and driving offences, intervention orders and smaller civil matters for the Melbourne CBD.

As Victoria's principal summary court in the CBD, this venue deals with an enormous volume of criminal charges, traffic and drink-driving cases, committals, bail applications and intervention-order matters. Because lists move quickly and the building is large, having someone who knows the process makes a real difference. We take time beforehand to explain what will happen, negotiate with police prosecutors where we can, and put your best position forward clearly and calmly.
