What our clients say
Kristy has been my legal representative since I was 15 and she is not just good at what she does but she is also an amazing support who will always give great advice and lead you in the right direction with everything she can. She is very loyal and compassionate at what she does and has helped me on a number of occasions where I have turned to her with lengthy amounts of charges and I always end up with the best penalty and defence. Let’s just say 3 out of 4 times I have been incarcerated was from parole breaches the other time was remanded on a lot and was released from Court.
She will make you help yourself to be the best version of you and always goes hard for her clients as she is most experienced and loves her job I wouldn’t go anywhere else. She can sometimes be hard to reach as she is a very busy woman always fighting for her clients but that is a sign that tells you I’m right.
Emma, from Bell Criminal Lawyers, was recommended by a solicitor I used 2 years ago. Emma is very knowledgeable, supportive and ready to assist at any time. For the short time period Emma assisted with my matter, she was very professional and provided great advice. I am very happy with the service provided and couldn’t recommend her more. Thank you.
I highly recommend this Law Firm. They have excellent expertise and knowledge of the law. I thank them for successfully defending me against a very malicious matter. Big thanks, and shout out to Eleanor. I highly recommend this Law Firm to anyone seeking legal assistance.
May I add that they were the only law firm that gave me confidence, as they listened very carefully and professionally to my matter. Excellent Law Firm, the best I’ve seen.

Emma and Kacey,
I just wanted to express my sincere thanks for welcoming us yesterday, but especially to you Emma arising from our conference.
Both my nephew and I were really happy with your down to earth, no nonsense approach and advice. My nephew in particular felt heard, understood and respected.
He has experienced a lot of backlash, the loss of friendships and ultimately lost his job after he was charged by the police due to the combined impact of all the circumstances. The charge itself has weighed and continues to weigh heavily upon him. He has come a long way but I know that yesterday’s conference and your assessment of matters and approach has given him confidence.
Kristy, I couldn’t let a day go by without taking the time to thank you for your kindness and the exceptional professionalism you brought to my case. I could never have imagined such a positive outcome, and the relief I feel is truly immeasurable.
Your creativity and strategic approach to the matter, along with your ability to articulate such compelling responses, were incredibly impressive. I also deeply appreciated your patience, understanding, and support during a time when I was feeling very overwhelmed. Your guidance meant more to me than I can adequately express.
I am sincerely grateful for everything you have done and will always appreciate the care and dedication you showed throughout this process.
Alongside Kristy’s professionalism & high experience in her field of work, she’s caring, kind hearted, always took the time to listen and make me feel understood throughout hardship.
I can’t recommend her enough.
Kristy Bell and her team are professional and capable criminal lawyers. I am always happy to engage her services acting as my town agent for matters where needed or refer clients where I can’t assist.
Highly recommend.
Very professional and compassionate. Not just lawyers but also great humans! Would recommend to everyone.
