North Lakes criminal lawyers in the lower courts

The bulk of criminal law matters are dealt with in the courts of summary jurisdiction. This is the Magistrates Court (for adults) and the Children’s Court (for juveniles). Matters like stealing, assault, drink driving and some drug matters are dealt with by magistrates. More serious matters are also commenced in the courts of summary jurisdiction, and then committed to a higher court for finalisation.

If you have a matter in the Magistrates Court or Children’s Court, contact Go To Court Lawyers for specialist advice and representation.

District Court and Supreme Court

In Queensland, more serious criminal matters are dealt with in the District Court and Supreme Court. In these courts, more severe sentences can be imposed and matters generally take longer to be finalised. Criminal offences that are dealt with in the higher courts include robbery and homicide offences.
