Honesty, integrity and reliability

Three Key Ingredients of a Good Lawyer

Combined with innovation, knowledge and experience, I provide affordable legal services in Western Australia, from Esperance to Kununurra and everywhere in between.

About Me

My practice sees me regularly appearing in both civil and criminal matters in the District Court, Magistrates Court, Family Court and State Administrative Tribunal. I undertake trials, hearings and sentencings with consistently good outcomes for clients.

Before opening my own firm, I was an employed solicitor at a boutique firm practising out of Joondalup and Karratha. Prior to being admitted to the Supreme Court in 2011, I served 7 years in the Royal Australian Air Force as a life support technician. I have also worked as a foster carer for the Department for Child Protection, spent a number of years as a live-in carer for people with autism, enjoyed being a tradie working on (and in) tin roofs in the middle of summer in Perth, and have had various roles in retail. It is this real-life experience that helps me understand my client's needs and how to best assist them.

Whatever your legal issue, I will be able to provide you honest and up-front advice that you can rely on. Book your free consultation below.

Practice Areas

I practice in a select number of fields that experience has shown people will need help in at some point of their life. You can read more about how I can assist you below.

Criminal Law

As much as we don't expect it, sometimes we find ourselves in more trouble than we thought. I practice in all major areas of criminal law including traffic, drug-related offences and offences against the person in both the District and Magistrates Court of Western Australia.

Civil Law

Unfortunately, we don't always see eye-to-eye and disputes may require some legal help or intervention. I have a wide range of experience in both prosecuting and defending litigious matters. I also have a referral network of complimentary services to help you deal with all aspects of your issue.

Family Law

It is a sad fact of life that relationships are not always forever. Whether it be a dispute relating to the property or parenting, we are here to offer considered advice and support. As a divorced father of one, I know only too well the thoughts and feelings that may be impacting on your decision making during this difficult and tumultuous time. Get in touch for honest, up-front advice and assistance you can trust.

Traffic Law

A lapse of judgement, a bit of over-excitement or just bad luck can result in serious consequences. I am experienced in defending traffic charges including complex or unusual situations. Whether you just want to know what penalty you are looking at or need experienced counsel to defend you, I can help.

Restraining Orders

Whether you need advice and representation in applying for a Misconduct, Violence, or Family Violence Restraining Order, or if you need help defending one, I have the skills and experience you need. In a number of instances, I am able to negotiate a resolution to the matter without the emotional and financial drain of a trial.

Pro bono Assistance

If you have an issue that you think is of public importance, whether it relate to criminal appeals, environmental issues or matters of public policy, don't be afraid to get in touch! Even if I can't help you personally, I will put you in touch with someone who can.
