Proposed changes to bail laws in NSW threaten the presumption of innocence underpinning the criminal justice system and mark a return to the "bad old days" that existed under older laws, legal experts have warned.

The state government unveiled a suite of proposed changes on Tuesday to the state's fledgling bail laws, which came into effect on May 20.

Under the new rules, adults accused of one of six categories of "serious offence" – including firearms offences and those carrying a penalty of life in prison – must "show cause" why their detention awaiting trial is not justified.

If the defendant can show cause, or the offence does not fit into one of those categories, the court considers whether the person poses an "unacceptable risk" of reoffending, failing to turn up to the trial, or interfering with witnesses while on bail.
