About Hopetoun Police Station

Hopetoun Police Station is part of WA Police Force and serves Hopetoun and the surrounding area within Great Southern District.

Officers based there investigate a broad range of matters, from traffic and drink driving to assault, family violence and restraining order matters, drug offences, stealing, fraud, and other criminal matters.

Hopetoun Police Station operates limited front-counter hours rather than around the clock. Outside those hours, urgent matters in the area are handled through Albany Police Station or by calling 131 444. If you are asked to attend for an interview, it will usually be arranged during opening hours, which gives you time to speak with a lawyer before you go.

For non-urgent police assistance anywhere in the district, including Hopetoun, call the WA Police Force on 131 444, or 000 in an emergency. Direct station numbers can change, so it is worth confirming the current number for Hopetoun Police Station on 131 444 before relying on it.

You may be there by request, on bail, to make a statement, or after being taken into custody. In each case, advice before you decide anything can shape how the matter unfolds.

Have Police Asked You To Attend Hopetoun Police Station?

Our criminal defence lawyers can explain:

  • Whether you are required to attend;

  • Potential criminal charges; and
  • The best strategy to protect your interests.
