Areas Of Law


Criminal Law

Being charged with a criminal offence can result in life-changing consequences, such as a custodial sentence, loss of employment or restrictions on overseas travel.


Traffic Law

If you have been charged with a traffic offence, such as excessive speeding or drink driving, you could find yourself facing a hefty fine and being without a licence for a considerable period of time…a result which may cause you to lose your job.


Licence Appeals

For many, holding a driver licence is a necessity for work or just day-to-day living. The courts, however, view driving on the road as a privilege, not a right.

Legal Costs

The costs associated with protecting or pursuing your legal rights are often a cause of concern for clients.

We at Nightingale Law ensure that our clients are aware of the costs associated with their matters, and we are determined to ensure that there is no confusion about why or where costs arise.

Legal Aid Queensland (“LAQ”) provides assistance to eligible persons for their legal matters.


To receive this assistance LAQ will assess your application. Generally, when deciding if they will assist you, they will look at the circumstances of your matter (and its merits) as well as your financial circumstances.

We aim to be 100% transparent, as we know that our clients are often already trying to deal with the stress of their matter.

As the lawyers of Nightingale Law have extensive experience, it also means that we work better and faster than other law firms, which translates to less costs for our clients.

We are a Legal Aid Queensland preferred supplier, which means that we can do legal work where LAQ has approved a grant of legal aid to you for your legal matter.

We can also assist you in making your application.
