Armstrong Legal has a dedicated and experienced team of criminal defence lawyers who practice exclusively in Criminal and Traffic Law. The primary focus of each of our lawyers is the service provided to their clients. We recognise that facing criminal or traffic charges can be confronting and stressful and has potentially serious consequences.
At Armstrong Legal, we understand that being charged with a Criminal or Traffic offence can be an incredibly stressful time and we pride ourselves on our ability to guide you through the process, every step of the way. Criminal and Traffic law can be incredibly complex. It is important to have expert advice in your corner, to help you defend your matter, or obtain a sentence that will not impact your life, family or employment negatively.
With three of our Criminal lawyers recognised by the Law Society of New South Wales as Accredited Specialists in Criminal Law, Armstrong Legal's criminal lawyers have the skill, experience and expertise to handle all aspects of criminal law.
Our lawyers practise in New South Wales, Victoria, Queensland and the Australian Capital Territory. We appear in the Local, District, Magistrates and Children's Courts regularly as well as in the Court of Appeal, the Court of Criminal Appeal, and the High Court of Australia.
Criminal or traffic charges can bring fears of potential penalties such as fines, loss of licence or even imprisonment. Early decisions, like whether to speak to police or whether doing so is required, can greatly impact a case, and you may easily worry about actions that may have negative implications for the case later when you don't have clear guidance. Moreover, legal terminology and processes can rapidly turn into a barrier, especially if online sources are inconsistent, jargon-filled or directly contradictory. This confusion makes it difficult to know who to trust or what to do first, amplifying anxiety about how charges might affect your job, reputation and family. Armstrong Legal recognises the importance of providing clear, practical information at this stage. As a nationally recognised law firm, our team specialises exclusively in Criminal Law, Family Law, Wills and Estates, Corporate Crime and Traffic Law matters.

We provide support in identifying the appropriate defences and applying them to your case, whether the situation calls for a legal defence, like self-defence or mental illness, or a factual defence, such as mistaken identity or an alibi.

I highly recommend Angela Cooney. She’s been professional, supportive, and extremely knowledgeable throughout my case. Angela took the time to explain every step of the process, kept me informed, and genuinely cared about achieving the best outcome. Her attention to detail and calm, confident approach made a stressful situation much easier to handle. I’m very grateful for everything she’s done.
