Sydney lawyer Michael Croke lists Potts Point office terrace

The Sydney criminal lawyer Michael Croke, who is in court facing charges of perverting the course of justice, has listed his Potts Point office terrace for sale.

The criminal lawyer Michael Croke, who is facing charges of perverting the course of justice, has listed his Potts Point office terrace for sale.

Croke is seeking $2.3 million for the Kellett Street offering through Tristan Bassey and Nick Chalipilias at Ray White.

The two-level Victorian terrace has 170 sqm of space, with plentiful shelving full of Croke case files.

Croke recently won a delay for his trial until March, the third time in three years there has been a postponement. He has pleaded not guilty to perverting the court of justice.

The matter concerns a $700,000 bag of cash seized from a person staying in Sydney’s Hilton Hotel in 2011. Croke allegedly assisted a criminal group in their attempts to convince the police the money was from a legitimate source.

Croke had previously not been able to provide the necessary funds for his defence which saw postponements in 2018 and 2019.

The delay to the anticipated six-week trial this time was as Croke’s barrister John Korn had been double-booked with a rape case client.
