Do you need to appear in court in Cooktown soon? Don’t go alone.

Our Cooktown lawyers provide expert advice and strong representation in all Cooktown legal cases.

Advice Before Court

We recommend booking a 1 hour conference with your Cooktown 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 Cooktown Magistrates Court on the day.

Court Lawyers

If you prefer, you can meet your lawyer at Cooktown 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.

Cooktown Magistrates Court

The Cooktown Magistrates Court is at 172 Charlotte St, Cooktown and has the operating hours of 8:30 am to 4:30 pm Monday to Friday. The Courthouse is located on the waterfront, beside the police station and near the intersection of Charlotte and Hill Streets.

Cooktown is around 330 kilometres or 4 hours drive north of Cairns along the Mulligan Highway. It is set on Cape York Peninsula amongst World Heritage-listed rainforest, at the mouth of the Endeavour River, the perfect place for a crocodile encounter.

The town is steeped in history, having provided safe-haven to its namesake, Captain James Cook when his ship, the Endeavour, sustained damage after striking a reef. Home to around 2000 people, it is a popular tourist destination, not only because of its many historical landmarks, but also because of the recreational and adventure activities on offer.

A series of unfortunate events led us to Tam Elabbasi. A situation that did not seem to warrant undue attention forced us to court. Tam's support and empathy of our case, his diligence and commonsense approach gave the court the means to drop the case. Forever grateful.

Very positive. I was really impressed by how the different jurisdictions were explained to me. One was a Civil matter and the other, the Family Court. Until the explanation I was confused and that is what was causing me distress. I am relieved to understand the difference and that is because it was explained to me in a way that I could understand. Well Worth the time and money for that peace of mind. Impressed with the follow up too. Many thanks.

- I recently came through here and was very impressed with the standard of professionalism and customer service that I experienced with Max Russ. Throughout the whole process I was made to feel very secure and comfortable. Along with a perfect result, Max proved to be a very down to earth guy and I do not doubt his ability to be very successful in this business. I wish him all the best and thank Max and Go To Court Lawyers for all their assistance, and for the perfect result they achieved for me.

Thanks to Sophie Kannemeyer for all her help, she was professional, understanding and respectful to my needs, I was pleasantly surprised that having to deal with a lawyer was made so much more easier and comfortable with Sophie, I would highly recommend these guys as they are understanding and respectful and also the fees are quite reasonable as well.

My husband and I have only briefly spoken to Tanguy and couldn't be more confident. Thank you for showing compassion and understanding toward our situation. You said all the things I wanted you to say (or thought a good lawyer would say), so thanks again. Looking forward to dealing with you further, cheers.

Thank you to my man Ali Rana who works for go to court lawyers. I needed some one to help me to make the judge understand my situation (overseas licence wasn't accepted so I went to court for unlicensed driving), he walked me through my options and what may or may not happen. Very professional, makes you feel at ease when you have some one like Ali Rana representing you, I highly recommend Ali Rana from go to court lawyers.
