One of Australia’s Most Trusted Criminal Defence Law Firms
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.
When criminal or traffic allegations risk your job, reputation and family duties, you are entitled to clear answers and reliable support. We know that the fear of penalties, such as fines, licence loss or imprisonment, leaves you feeling uncertain. Legal proceedings commonly include confusing language and steps, and with so much conflicting online content, you might be unclear about which advice applies to you. The uncertainty surrounding proper guidance can also make early decisions, such as speaking to the police, seem risky. That's where we come in at Armstrong Legal; for more than 30 years, our nationally recognised law firm has been offering practical, timely advice that explains what happens next in direct, plain language. When it comes to criminal defence lawyers, our team includes Accredited Specialists in Criminal Law who are recognised by the Law Society of New South Wales for their expertise and skill.

So, whether you were looking up "tax offences" or "dui lawyer Gold Coast", know that we give you honest communication, as well as realistic expectations about outcomes and costs.
Our team can support you in a range of criminal offences, such as when you face decisions around pleading guilty or not guilty. If you're facing matters involving break and enters, drug charges, fraud or other offences, we can support you, whatever the case's complexity. At Armstrong Legal, our specialist experience comes from handling more than 1,000 criminal and traffic matters each year. You can trust that you'll get expert legal advice since every lawyer on our team appears in court almost daily, building real expertise in court procedures, judicial expectations and prosecution tactics. 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. Those who have been browsing for "tax offences" or "what happens if you breach a dvo in QLD" and "criminal damage charge Victoria" can be confident that our structured approach will not overlook any detail and will position the case for the best possible outcome. Clients also receive fair and transparent pricing, ensuring that they know the value of the service provided, alongside careful attention to the needs of each matter.
When you contact Armstrong Legal by phone or online enquiry, a lawyer will get in touch directly to assess your matter promptly and clearly. The first discussion will go over your charge, the court notice and the main facts to pinpoint immediate priorities and outline what happens next. We walk you through the process step by step, beginning with the early decision of whether to plead guilty, contest the case or apply for bail. Beyond the clear explanation, our team advises with straightforward direction through the court system. The case can involve the Local, District, Magistrates, County and Children's Courts, with some matters even progressing to the Court of Appeal, the Court of Criminal Appeal or the High Court of Australia.

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.
