Frequently Asked Questions
How do I choose the best criminal lawyer?
To choose the best criminal defence lawyer, you should reach out to Dribbin & Brown if you are located in an area served by our firm.

When determining if the lawyer is good for you, ask the lawyer any question you may have at the onset of the matter to ensure you are both on the same page about your representation.
What is the role of a criminal defence lawyer?
Criminal defence lawyers represent clients in matters involving criminal law violations. Criminal defence lawyers handle the majority of tasks associated with criminal law cases. For example, criminal defence lawyers can examine the evidence against you and demonstrate to courts that the evidence is not as clear-cut as the police state it is. Criminal defence lawyers can also negotiate with governing authorities to lessen sentences or assist in the removal of charges from your record. Criminal defence lawyers ensure that your voice is heard in the courtroom.
How much does a good criminal defence lawyer cost?
At Dribbin & Brown Criminal Lawyers, for Magistrates’ Court matters, we quote one fee for services rendered whenever it is possible. For matters that are in County and Supreme Courts, we do our best to explain our fees at the onset of representation. Because lawyers’ fees vary based on the type of offence, length of time spent in court, and a number of other factors, the lawyers at Dribbin & Brown Criminal Lawyers go above and beyond to provide clients with cost and fee information.

I can't afford a criminal defence lawyer, what should I do?

Dribbin & Brown Criminal Lawyers accepts and welcomes Legal Aid enquiries and on occasion, our firm works with clients that are recipients of Legal Aid funding.
Who should I hire to represent me in a criminal case?
