Buchanan Legal offers a comprehensive range of criminal law representation to clients where they are charged with criminal offences in Queensland and New South Wales.

When it comes to Criminal Law, Buchanan Legal has the years of legal proficiency along with extensive courtroom experience and exceptional trial skills. This provides invaluable insight to deal effectively with prosecutors and courts, to deliver the best defence possible and obtain the best results for you.

When faced with criminal charges, trying to find a lawyer, quickly, is generally a first thought. People who have been recently arrested need to talk to a lawyer as soon as possible to ensure their rights are protected from the outset.

The most urgent priority is often getting a lawyer to help arrange release and provide some information about what's to come in the days ahead. Buchanan Legal can assist you with complete representation regardless of what the charge is.

Our lawyers have vast experience in the full range of criminal offences from drug matters, to assault and white collar crimes such as fraud and Corporations Act infringements and are available on an emergency basis for those in custody 24 hours a day. We can represent you at police stations for records of interview and questioning by police as well as in court to make early applications for bail where applicable to ensure you do not spend a minute longer then necessary in police custody.

We will handle your matter from start to finish.

This knowledge places Buchanan Legal with a distinct advantage over the majority of other criminal law practitioners who really only know the processes from one side of the fence.
