We are now closed for the Christmas and New Year holiday season and will reopen on 7 January 2019. Just in case you end up on Santa's naughty list though, we are available for urgent advice at any time during that period. From all of the staff at Wallace O'Hagan lawyers we wish you a Happy Christmas and a safe (and hopefully allegedly trouble-free!) New Year.

Below is an email from a happy client yesterday. He had never been in trouble and was deeply embarrassed and remorseful to find himself in Court. We negotiated the matter before his first day in Court so charges were substituted immediately and he pleaded guilty at the very first opportunity. He received a Good Behaviour Bond with no conviction recorded. Getting feedback like the below makes it all worthwhile and it was our pleasure to assist.

“Hello James,

Again I just wanted to express my thank you for getting me out of the most difficult situation I've ever faced, your support and guidance meant everything and your service was of the best standard. I couldn't be happier with my result”

This week saw the end of a 2.5 year journey for a client in the District Court. They had maintained their innocence from the very first day and after progressing through the Magistrates Court to the District Court a trial commenced and a jury were impaneled. On the first day an issue arose and after hearing submissions from our extremely experienced Counsel, the Prosecution discontinued all very serious charges and our client walked free. We take great pride in achieving just outcomes like this one and are over the moon for our client to have ended their journey in such a favourable way. Their family were overjoyed, which was shared by everyone in our office. Seeing them do a little dance of happiness after Court was almost as good as hearing the charges be formally dismissed. A well-deserved victory for our client which reminds us why we do this job!

As always of course if your matter is urgent contact one of our lawyers after-hours on 0466 649 447‬ or 0438 256 300. On behalf of the entire team at Wallace O’Hagan Lawyers we wish each and every one of you a safe and Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

A testimonial from an extremely grateful father of a client in custody where our office came into the matter very late - "James I can't thank you enough for what you and your team have done for (my son) I just wish I had gotten onto you beforehand but a big thank you I am so happy with the outcome". Results like this are what we strive for here, so if you or a loved one are in trouble don't hesitate to call, text, message, send a carrier pigeon or otherwise get our attention. We'll look after you.

The staff at Wallace O'Hagan Lawyers are extremely experienced in dealing with people from all backgrounds, including those addicted to dangerous drugs. We welcome the return of the Drug Court as a way to not only punish offenders, but to assist in removing the genesis of the problem - drug use. We look forward to the implementation of this sorely missed Specialist Court.

The State Budget commitment to reintroduce drug courts in Queensland will go a long way to targeting the problem of addiction and reduce spiralling crime, according Queensland’s peak solicitor group.
