Joseph Correy has advocated for justice most his adult life. As an activist, journalist and criminal lawyer, he has never shied away from a court case or cause he believed in.
Raised on Little Eveleigh St, Redfern, and a product of Redfern school, he is no novice to bad cops, communities oppressed and court battles. He entered law shortly after the death of TJ Hickey to hold the police force accountable. To this day, he continues to stand beside many Indigenous clients in their battle for justice.
Joseph is passionate about his clients and gone above and beyond what most solicitors do. He has a pro bono practice as large as any solicitor in the state. This is in addition to a private practice that is the busiest at Australian Criminal Law Group. He is a workaholic who is regarded as a solicitor with one of the sharpest legal minds in NSW.
Before opening Australian Criminal Law Group with Deng Adut, Joseph worked for two of the largest law firms in Sydney that specialise in criminal law. He left to build a different breed of lawfirm that put communities before commerce and people before profit. His experience ranges the entire spectrum of criminal law from traffic matters to murder. Whether in the Local Court before a Magistrate or in the District Court and Supreme Courts before a jury, Joseph gets client’s results.
Joseph lives and breathes the law. Australian Criminal Law Group is a reflection of his belief that the fight for justice is never over.
