When facing DUI, drink driving, or drug driving charges, the lawyer you choose can mean the difference between keeping your licence or losing it, between a criminal conviction or a Section 10 dismissal, between keeping your job or unemployment.
You may have never engaged a lawyer before, or perhaps you're unsure what separates an exceptional traffic lawyer from an average one. This page explains exactly what you should look for when choosing legal representation - and why Boorman Lawyers consistently delivers results that matter.
The magistrate's decision affects your licence, your criminal record, your employment, and your future. Choose representation that treats it with the seriousness it deserves.
These six critical factors should guide your decision when selecting legal representation for traffic or criminal matters.
Expert understanding of traffic and criminal law specific to your case
Thousands of successful cases throughout NSW and Queensland
Strategic case preparation and persuasive court presentation
Transparent, realistic advice and ongoing support throughout
No surprises - competitive, transparent pricing from the start
Direct contact with senior solicitors handling your case personally
Our lawyers know everything there is to know about Criminal and Traffic Law in New South Wales and Queensland. Why? Because we specialize exclusively in these areas.
Unlike general practitioners who take any matter that comes through the door, we focus solely on traffic and criminal law. Our lawyers have appeared on thousands of cases throughout Queensland and New South Wales, giving them unparalleled experience in achieving successful outcomes.
You'll have direct contact with the senior solicitor or partner handling your case from beginning to end. No being passed off to paralegals or junior staff - the experienced lawyer you meet with is the one who appears for you in court.
Our experienced Criminal and Traffic Law solicitors have appeared and represented clients on thousands of different cases throughout New South Wales and Queensland.
This high volume of cases gives our solicitors considerable experience dealing with the full range of issues and problems that can arise during the court process. We've seen it all - from procedural complications to unexpected magistrate questions to last-minute evidence issues.
This experience translates into practical benefits for you: we understand what will work, we know how to prepare strategic cases, and we can anticipate and solve problems before they derail your matter.
Our vast experience has given our lawyers a specialized skill set to persuasively argue your case when it comes before a court. The fact that we appear in court daily means our lawyers understand exactly what magistrates' attitudes and views are, and how to present cases in ways that consistently achieve the best results.
After preparing thousands of cases, we know exactly what evidence and documents support your case, which education courses you should complete, what rehabilitation treatment would be beneficial (both personally and to demonstrate seriousness to the court).
We know which issues to emphasize and which to avoid when presenting your case. After many years and thousands of cases, you can be confident we have the appropriate skill set and ability to achieve the best possible outcome for your matter.
We understand that when a client engages our legal services, it's usually a stressful, emotional, and uncertain time. For this reason, we do our absolute best to ensure you're fully aware of your situation and the potential or likely outcomes.
We're very upfront and honest with our clients so you truly understand your situation. We know there are lawyers who promise the world just to get your business. We take a different approach - we provide honest appraisals of your matter while using our experience and strategy to pursue the desired outcome.
We'll never promise particular outcomes that are impossible or very unlikely to achieve. We are realistic and honest in our approach with clients and with courts.
Costs are always a big consideration when choosing a lawyer. Most people worry about being lumped with massive legal bills without understanding how much they've racked up.
We disclose everything upfront before you incur any costs. We generally quote a fixed fee which removes all uncertainty about what you'll pay. Prior to commencing, we'll discuss fixed fee amounts and provide a Costs and Disclosure Agreement as required by the Law Society.
When you engage our firm, expect:
Our fees are competitive - we may cost more than general practitioners who don't specialize, but we're certainly not the most expensive. Our fees sit around the middle of the market, but as they say, you get what you pay for.
