What a Brisbane criminal law lawyer can help with

Criminal law in Queensland is governed mainly by the Criminal Code Act 1899 (Qld). A Brisbane criminal lawyer can represent you on charges from low-range drink driving to indictable offences before the District or Supreme Court. Early advice often makes the single biggest difference to the outcome.

  • You have been charged with drink or drug driving and have a court date at Brisbane Magistrates Court.
  • Police want to interview you and you are unsure whether to participate.
  • You are facing an assault, theft, fraud or drug charge.
  • You need a bail application or a variation of bail conditions.
  • You have received a Notice to Appear and do not know what it means.

What to bring to your first consultation

  • A copy of the charge sheet, QP9 or Notice to Appear.
  • Your court date and the courthouse listed.
  • Any bail undertakings or conditions already imposed.
  • A short written account of what happened, while it is still fresh.

What it costs in Brisbane

Brisbane criminal lawyers commonly quote fixed fees for guilty pleas in the Magistrates Court ($1,500–$4,000). Defended hearings and indictable matters are usually billed by the day or by stage.

The Brisbane context

Most summary offences are heard at the Brisbane Magistrates Court on George Street. Indictable matters proceed to the Brisbane District Court or Supreme Court at the Queen Elizabeth II Courts of Law on George Street.

Questions to ask your lawyer

Once matched, bring these to your first consultation.

  • What are the likely outcomes for a charge like mine, generally speaking?
  • Is there any advantage to resolving this matter early?
  • What would it take to achieve a no-conviction outcome?
  • What does your representation cover, and what are the costs at each stage?
  • Is there anything I should or should not do between now and my next court date?
