Michael Perrella BA, LL.B
Mr Perrella has over 20 years' experience as a legal practitioner in Western Australia. After 10 years working as a prosecutor for both the Commonwealth and the State of Western Australia Mr Perrella developed first-hand knowledge and experience about how a prosecution case is built from the investigation stage of gathering evidence to the assessment of that evidence and application of prosecution policy and guidelines through to making tactical decisions about how the case will be presented to a jury and then effectively prosecuting the case at trial before a judge and jury.
Drawing on his extensive knowledge and experience as a prosecutor Mr Perrella made the move to the other side of the bar table to fulfil his long-held desire to establish a specialist criminal law firm.
Since establishing Perrella Legal in 2011, Mr Perrella has garnered a solid reputation as a successful criminal defence lawyer having consistently achieved outstanding results for his clients by negotiating outright discontinuances of serious indictable charges, securing acquittals at trial and obtaining non-custodial outcomes on pleas of guilty for serious criminal offences.
Mr Perrella has prosecuted and defended numerous criminal trials in all courts throughout Western Australia.
Mr Perrella is on the panel of lawyers briefed by the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions to prosecute serious indictable offences throughout Western Australia.
Mr Perrella is a member of the Criminal Lawyers’ Association of Western Australia and the Law Society of Western Australia.
