Tamar Legal

Tamar Legal helps people in Tasmania who face criminal charges, traffic and drink driving offences, family violence order matters, estate disputes and civil disputes. It is a specialist litigation firm based in Launceston, and clients deal directly with the principal, Michael Larcombe, from start to finish.

The firm acts in the Magistrates Court and Supreme Court of Tasmania, and in tribunals such as TASCAT. It accepts legally aided matters and was recently given a 2026 Tasmania Legal Aid award for its work with vulnerable Tasmanians.

The firm says clearly what it does not do. It does not handle family law, conveyancing, commercial law, personal injury, employment law or estate planning.

Tamar Legal has an office at 76 York Street, Launceston, and a postal address in Deloraine. It can also meet clients in Devonport, Burnie and Deloraine by arrangement. The firm acts for clients across Tasmania, and for some clients interstate and overseas, and offers consultations by Zoom, MS Teams or phone.

Tamar Legal specialises in criminal and traffic law, including drink and drug driving, restricted licence applications, firearms matters and police pre-interview advice. It also acts in family violence order matters, estate disputes such as contested probate and testators family maintenance claims, and civil disputes including debt recovery. The firm offers fixed fees for drink driving and restricted licence work and accepts legal aid referrals.
