About Us

Criminal Law

The team at Chambers Legal consists of expert criminal lawyers, specialising in all areas of criminal defence law and regularly representing clients in all courts. If you have been charged with a criminal offence by the police, or you are being investigated by the police, our criminal lawyers can help. We are available after hours for urgent advice.

Traffic Law

We can assist with traffic charges ranging from drink driving to more serious traffic charges, such as reckless driving to evade police and dangerous driving causing bodily harm. If you have lost your licence, we can also help with applying for an extraordinary driver’s licence.

Criminal Appeals

If you have already been through a trial or sentencing and you are considering appealing the outcome with the help of a criminal lawyer, we can assist you with the appeal process. Filing an appeal must generally be done within a certain deadline, so you should contact a criminal defence lawyer as soon as possible for advice.

The idea for Chambers Legal came about over a lunch meeting between Arina and Yasmin in November 2017.

The idea was that Arina and Yasmin wanted to create a firm to assist those requiring legal advice and representation against criminal charges at an affordable rate, and to make navigating the legal process as easy as possible.

They also understood that it was important to build a good rapport with their clients, to ensure that everyone felt listened to, and had the law explained to them in an easy-to-understand way.

And so, the idea for Chambers Legal was born, and from there, things moved quickly. Chambers Legal officially opened their doors for business on 1 February 2018.

Today, the team have over 20 years of criminal law experience between them.

At Chambers Legal, we are focussed on providing our clients with a high level of service and the best possible legal representation to achieve excellent outcomes in criminal and traffic law.
