Facing a criminal charge can be confusing, stressful and overwhelming, and without the very best legal advice and representation, there can be a lot at risk.
A criminal conviction can impact your family law proceedings. It can also have a long-lasting impact on your ability to travel, your future employment and other rights and freedoms.
At Thrive Law, our lawyers are experienced in both State and Federal jurisdictions, and can expertly represent you in all criminal and traffic law matters from the most minor to the most serious.
For many people, their first and only brush with the criminal law system is for a driving offence.
Having to appear in Court for a traffic offence can be an intimidating experience, and losing your licence can impact your work and ability to care for children.
We can help you to understand the range of available options for your traffic offence, including whether you may be eligible for a work licence.
Our experienced lawyers will appear for you at Court and help you to achieve the best possible outcome for your case.
Many family lawyers will not act for their clients for domestic violence offences, meaning that the client needs to engage two separate firms – at significant cost.
Our lawyers practice in both the Queensland Courts and the Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia. We can ensure that your interests are protected in both jurisdictions and expertly manage the intersection of those matters.
Domestic violence law is constantly evolving. We stay at the forefront of its complexity and our practice is informed by the latest social, psychological and criminological research.
We appreciate the stress experienced by clients who are involved in domestic violence proceedings, particularly when they arise in the setting of family breakdown.
