Our Law Services

Osborne Butler specialises in law related to two main areas – Criminal Law & Traffic and Licensing Law. We believe that this focus gives us a competitive advantage for you as our client, allowing our lawyers to specialise and hone their skills into specific areas. The law and penalties related to these offences change very quickly and it is important to keep up to date. Honing in on these specific areas allows us to apply the most current laws to your case. We also work in areas that are often complimentary. For example, traffic accidents can give rise to criminal charges such as dangerous operation of a motor vehicle. Similarly, work licence applications can be critical in maintaining employment. In these areas, we offer a wide range of solutions to your problems – we can advise you on your prospects of applying for a work licence or a special hardship order, or protecting your interests for a criminal matter in a court of law.
