How we rank these firms

This ranking is based on real client feedback, not paid placement. We combine each firm's average client rating with the number of reviews it has received, so a firm with a single five-star review does not outrank an established practice with a long, consistent track record.

Ratings and review counts are sourced from public Google reviews and refreshed regularly. Because new reviews come in over time, the order of criminal law firms can change as client feedback accumulates.

A high rating is a useful starting point, but it is not a substitute for your own research. We recommend contacting two or three firms, asking about their experience with matters like yours, and confirming fees before making a decision.

Criminal Law FAQs in Perth, Western Australia

Should I speak to a lawyer before talking to police?

Yes. You have the right to remain silent and to obtain legal advice before being interviewed. Speaking to a criminal lawyer first helps you avoid saying something that could harm your case.

How much does a criminal lawyer cost?

Costs depend on the seriousness of the charge and whether the matter is contested. Many firms offer a fixed fee for a guilty plea in the Local or Magistrates Court and a free initial consultation. Always ask for fees in writing.

Can I get legal aid for a criminal charge?

Legal aid may be available depending on your income, assets and the type of charge. If you do not qualify, many private firms offer payment plans. A lawyer can tell you quickly whether you are likely to be eligible.

How do I choose the right law firm in Perth, Western Australia?

Look for a firm with genuine experience in your specific type of matter, clear and upfront pricing, and strong client reviews. Most firms offer an initial consultation, which is a good chance to ask about their approach and likely costs.

Should I get a free initial consultation?

Many firms offer a free or low-cost first appointment. Use it to explain your situation, understand your options and get a sense of fees before committing. It is also a useful way to compare a few firms.
