Childers Lawyers | Expert Solicitors

Advice Before Court

We recommend booking a 1 hour conference with your Childers lawyer before going to court. You will get expert advice on what you should do, the likely outcome and any preparation you need to do beforehand. You will also get a fixed quote on the cost for you to be represented in Childers Magistrates Court on the day.

Court Lawyers

If you prefer, you can meet your lawyer at Childers Magistrates Court without the need for a conference beforehand. Some examples of when this will suit you are adjournments, simple pleas or when your case is listed for directions from the court (not a final hearing). And if you are not on bail, you may not even need to attend.

Childers Magistrates Court

The Childers Magistrates Court has the operating hours of 8:30am to 4:30pm Monday to Friday. The Courthouse is located on the intersection of Crescent and Churchill Streets.

Named after Hugh Childers, this quiet sugar cane town has a population of 1500 people. If you are driving, Childers is 323 km north of Brisbane.

Childers has preserved historic buildings such as the Grand and Federal Hotels and the Childers Post Office, which was built in 1887.
