Practice Leader, Crime
Scott spent almost 20 years within the NSW Police Force — as a Detective, Senior Prosecutor and Legal Advisor to NSW Police — before moving into criminal defence.
That first-hand experience gives him an in-depth understanding of how police policy and procedure actually works, which translates into a distinct advantage for clients, including in traffic matters where police discretion and process often decide the outcome.
Today he leads Baybridge’s defence team, built around personal advocacy and discretion.

“I made a mistake and was caught drink driving. Baybridge kept me informed throughout and got the penalty reduced significantly.”
