Thirty years of criminal law experience. Ex-Police. Ex-DPP Prosecutor. When the stakes are your liberty, your licence, or your livelihood — clarity matters.
Vanzino Lawyers is led by Karryn Vanzino — a principal lawyer with three decades of courtroom experience, including time as a police officer and as a prosecutor with the DPP.
You won't be handed to a junior. You won't get generic advice. What you'll get is meticulous preparation, plain-English strategy, and an advocate who knows the system from every angle.
Focus is the difference. We practice only criminal law — across Local, District, and Supreme courts throughout Sydney, regional NSW and interstate.
Drink driving, DUI (drug & alcohol), disqualified driving, licence appeals, speeding and serious traffic matters.
Possession, supply, manufacture and importation. Festival arrests. Discreet, strategic defence at every level.
Assault, resist arrest, domestic violence, AVOs, malicious damage and stalking/intimidation charges.
Murder, manslaughter, sexual offences, armed robbery, break & enter — matters that demand senior counsel.
Bail applications, severity and conviction appeals, and Section 10 non-conviction advocacy.
Children's Court matters, Youth Justice Conferences, and Mental Health (Section 32) hearings.
"The best defence is the one that begins before the courtroom — with the right questions, the right preparation, and the right tone."— Karryn Vanzino, Principal
