I approached Robertson O'Gorman solicitors on a strong recommendation from a friend, I can totally see why. Right from the get-go I felt I was dealing with a professional outfit. I had approached quite a few legal companies and because my matters involved, if you accepted my story as true, serious criminal allegations against a serving Bundaberg Highway Patrol Officer I was unable to secure local representation. The only lawyer who agreed to meet with me was a former cop, who I sacked during our paid initial consultation. His opinion was I had no option but to plead guilty and to expect 12 months imprisonment.
I left my details with an assistant and received a call back from Hannah Pugh. Hannah was impressive from the outset, an excellent listener who you could tell "got it" from the follow up questions she asked. Today I am informed my matters are complete, terminated as no evidence to offer prosecutions. Sure, it was 3 mentions progressed, but as anyone who has had to deal with obstructive police practises can attest, that is nothing. Hannah kept my wife and myself informed to the extent she could(my wife was both a witness and victim) and advocated ferociously on my behalf while treating us both with the utmost respect and courtesy.
Hannah kept us informed of the best legal means for progressing my matters and the pros and cons of the various approaches. The final decision was always left to me.
Congratulations Hannah on your big win for me!
I am so lucky to have received a recommendation from a friend. There is nothing I could have reasonably expected from an attorney that you didn't deliver.

Our family was in complete disbelief when serious charges were laid against the head of our household following a family matter. This situation caused immense emotional distress for our children and placed significant strain on our family.
From our very first conversation with Emma Higgins, she provided reassurance, clarity, and professional guidance during what was an incredibly challenging time. She took the time to explain complex legal terminology in plain language, ensuring we fully understood each stage of the process. Emma was transparent about all possible outcomes, both positive and negative and maintained honesty and integrity throughout.
Beyond her legal expertise, Emma showed genuine care and compassion. She made us feel heard, supported, and focused not only on the legal aspects of our case but also on the well-being and restoration of our family relationships.
Emma was understanding, realistic, and exceptionally professional. We are deeply grateful for her support and cannot thank her enough.
While we hope no one ever finds themselves in a similar situation, if you do, you would be in the best hands with Emma.

I can’t thank Robertson O’Gorman enough for their support and representation throughout my recent matter. From the very beginning, Hannah provided clear advice and reassurance when I needed it most. Lillian then guided me through the lead-up to the final court appearance with great care and professionalism.
On the day of the court hearing, Matt took over and represented me. His calm, confident approach and clear advocacy made a real difference. I felt supported and well represented at every stage.
The team’s dedication, empathy, and attention to detail helped achieve a result I’m incredibly grateful for — one that protects my future and brings great relief.
I highly recommend this firm to anyone needing strong and compassionate legal support.

I cannot recommend Hannah Plough and the team at Robertson O'Gorman highly enough! I recently had a case where Hannah's exceptional representation led to an absolutely outstanding result – the case was thrown out on a "no case submission."
From our first meeting, Hannah was professional, incredibly knowledgeable, and provided clear, strategic advice. She demonstrated a deep understanding of the law and approached my situation with both diligence and genuine care. Her expertise and dedication truly shone through, culminating in a successful outcome that exceeded my expectations.
If you're looking for legal representation that delivers on its promises and achieves incredible results, look no further than Hannah Plough and Robertson O'Gorman. Thank you for your hard work and for achieving such a favourable outcome!

I am very pleased to have worked with Matthew and highly recommend him. He is very knowledgeable, intelligent and passionate about his work. The level of professionalism helped me get through a complex legal issue and made it easy to get through the amount of detail and documentation required. He was there every step of the way and I’m also very grateful that he was empathetic to my situation. I doubt I would have received the great result without his help.
