Ella Burton – Criminal Defence Lawyer

Criminal Defence Lawyer and Parole Specialist

Note to police and prison staff: if a person requests to call me, I am happy for you to facilitate this.

Advocating for your rights

I am an effective and experienced courtroom advocate specialising in criminal defence and parole hearings. I represent people facing criminal charges, parole and appeals.  

I believe my role as your lawyer is to:

  • be a fearless advocate for you, your case and your rights;

  • be your navigator throughout the parole or court process;

  • listen and understand your situation;

  • empower you by keeping you informed;

  • de-mystify the process by breaking it down into steps that we can work through together.

I provide accessible and clear support at every step in the process.


Assistance for lawyers

I am available to appear as second counsel in trials, and as an agent for court appearances around the Auckland region.  

I can also assist lawyers with trial preparation, prison visits, and submissions.  I have PAL 2 approval.

 

Contact me

You can callemail, or fill in the form below, with a brief summary of your legal problem and I can let you know how I can help.

We can explore your options, desired outcomes, the most affordable and efficient way to achieve this, and the likely costs involved. 

Everything you tell me will be completely confidential. 

It does not cost anything to make an enquiry and have a brief chat about your situation.
