What do criminal lawyers do?
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.
What does a good lawyer cost?
Lawyers’ fees vary based on the type of offence, time spent in court or dealing with the courts, and numerous other factors. However, the lawyers at Dribbin & Brown Criminal Lawyers work hard to provide clients with cost and fee information. At Dribbin & Brown Criminal Lawyers, for Magistrates’ Court matters, whenever possible, we quote one fee for services rendered. For cases that are held in County and Supreme Courts, we explain our fees at the onset of representation whenever possible.
How do I find a great criminal defence lawyer?

Legal Aid is a government-funded service available to individuals in Australia who are unable to pay for legal services. Legal Aid provides free legal advice or representation to these individuals.
Who should I hire to represent me in a criminal case?
If you have been charged with a criminal offence, it is best to hire a criminal lawyer located in the jurisdiction where you were charged and that specialises in handling criminal cases, i.e., a criminal defence lawyer. Lawyers that specialise in criminal defence should be very familiar with the law governing your offence, and the local court system’s processes and procedures. Call Dribbin & Brown Criminal Lawyers, and we can connect you with one of our great lawyers.
When to hire an experienced criminal defence lawyer?
It is advantageous to hire a criminal lawyer as soon as you have been charged with a criminal offence. However, if you are past that point, do not fear, you can still hire a lawyer to assist you even if you are part of the way through the process. The right lawyer can reduce the stress and worries you have regarding your criminal case by stepping into the matter and making things right.
