Dealing with a legal situation can be, well, just plain awful. We get it. We understand the stress that the law can put people under affects every part of your life. This is why when you work with us you get a real person, not an empty suit; someone who is genuine, down to earth and will make your experience of the law as painless as it can be.
For Nick Dore and the team, being a legal practitioner isn’t just a job, it’s a life choice. A choice they make to help people just like you everyday of the week with whatever criminal law, compensation or migration issue they may face.
At Fisher Dore, we’re always working to make your experience of the law less cr*p. Together, we will get you back to doing what you love.
Fisher Dore are award winning lawyers in Queensland. When you need advice and representation for criminal, compensation or migration matters, our team can assist.
When things go wrong in life, we all reach out to people we can trust. Legal experts who will treat you with respect and provide professional advice. Our team understand the complexities of the legal system and the people in it. Lawyers with extensive experience, who have achieved incredible results for our clients. We will be there to provide expertise, guidance and support. But more than that, we believe in justice and fairness and will go above and beyond to fight for you.
Most law firms will say you can trust them but here’s two reasons why we really mean it and why thousands of Queenslanders have put their faith in us since 1977.
This is the driving force behind our team and why people come to work at Fisher Dore. We often pick cases that matter to us like when we find good people in bad situations that we know are simply not right. When we see a wrong we go beyond and above to make it right. We have many clients that have experienced this and you can read reviews from these people here on our website.
We work with people who have cases that matter. It matters that people should be given a second chance; it matters that the law can tarnish someone’s reputation for life; it matters that people shouldn’t be charged with offences that they didn’t commit; it matters that people should be compensated for harm and it matters that people should be together with their loved ones. We fight for what matters in these and many other difficult situations.
Trust is earned and we have earned the trust of so many people just like you, people for whom we have often achieved incredible legal results.
For Nick Dore and the team, being a legal practitioner isn’t just a job. Our team live and breathe the law and our clients’ cases. We appreciate that the people we represent are often dealing with the most difficult situation of their lives. We want our clients to understand every aspect of their case and be aware of all possible options and outcomes. The outcomes of our cases can have life-changing consequences. These outcomes matter, as does the process and the way we communicate. We are here to help our clients navigate a complex legal system. We support those who don’t have a voice, but deserve to be heard. We put everything into looking out for our clients. Going above and beyond is the only way we know how to operate.
