Mason Lawyers is thrilled to announce that Larry Brazel will be expanding our practice areas to encompass Criminal and Traffic law in January 2023 as a Senior Lawyer based in our Belmont office.
Larry was first admitted as a lawyer in 1990, and as a barrister in 2006. He comes to us with extensive experience in a number of practice areas – you name it, he’s done it! During the last few years, Larry has recently mostly specialised in civil litigation matters and criminal and traffic work. As a barrister, he often got the ‘tricky cases’ that required advocacy at court – so we feel are pleased to offer that level of experience to clients of the firm.
Larry Brazel said:
“I can’t wait to get started working at Mason Lawyers….. I enjoy helping people, and like the competitive challenge of going to court. No matter what kind of issue they are facing, I aim to help clients achieve the best possible outcome.”
The director of Mason Lawyers, Ross Mason, said:
“We saw a need to expand our practice areas so that we can assist clients facing criminal and traffic charges. It’s great to have such a highly experienced advocate in the courtroom to join our team.
Larry says that the practice of law is not rocket science but that getting to the kernel of a legal issue is absolutely essential — you need to be able to communicate effectively with people on several levels to work through that issue so that there are no surprises in the witness box. And listening is the key.
Larry brings many other skills to the practice. As well as assisting our clients in criminal and traffic law, he will be a boon to our team with estate disputes, estate planning and other litigation matters. In particular, Larry will be providing expert representation in the following areas: –
- Criminal and traffic law
- Local Court pleas
- Drink driving, traffic offences
- Drug offences including possession and supply
- Domestic violence AVOs
- Assault offences including common assault, indecent assault and sexual assault
- Debt recovery
- Theft, fraud and dishonesty
- Estate and will disputes
- Commercial and general civil litigation
- Estate planning
