Episode notes

This is a "Shortcut" episode. It’s a shortened version of this week’s more detailed full episode, which is also available on our feed.

There's been many high profile criminal cases in the courts lately, so we thought it would be the right time to unlock this ATC Plus subscriber episode with Ljupka Subeska, also known as LJ.

LJ is a criminal lawyer and Principal at Astoria Lawyers in Sydney. For this episode, she is here to take us behind the curtain and see how a criminal lawyer prepares for a case, as well as to debunk some common misconceptions about her job.

This interview is led by veteran broadcast journalist (and friend of Australian True Crime), Ashlea Hansen.
