New additions to criminal law team
QUEENSLAND legal firm Creevey Russell Lawyers has strengthened its criminal law division with the appointment of defence lawyers Michael Burrows and Craig van der Hoven.
Creevey Russell principal Dan Creevey said the firm’s crime and misconduct division would be headed by Mr Burrows, who previously worked with the Northern Territory criminal law firm Maley and Burrows.
Mr Burrows has also worked as special counsel for Nyst Legal and Armstrong Legal in Queensland.
“Michael has practised extensively throughout Australia and has conducted many complex criminal cases in South East Asia,” Mr Creevey said.
“Craig also has extensive criminal law experience. We look forward to Michael and Craig’s contribution to the firm’s crime and misconduct division, which also includes Isabella King, Samantha Robinson and Daniel Creevey.”
Mr Creevey said the firm was determined to offer a point of difference in dealing with criminal justice matters.
“We are able to help clients across every aspect of criminal and regulatory prosecutions, including matters which are still at an investigatory stage, and we have an enviable track record of achieving successful results,” he said.
“Our crime and misconduct team deals with matters such as drug and traffic offences, domestic violence and protection orders, weapons licensing issues, workplace health and safety prosecutions, gas prosecutions as well as high profile criminal matters.
“We have offices in Brisbane, Toowoomba and Roma with the ability to service clients in the regional areas of Queensland and appearing for them anywhere in Australia.”
