Great service all the time
I had a fantastic experience with Peter, his professionalism, dedication, and in-depth knowledge of criminal law made a stressful situation much easier to navigate. From the very start, they provided clear advice, kept me informed, and fought tirelessly on my behalf.
Their expertise and strategic approach led to the best possible outcome, and I couldn’t be more grateful. I highly recommend Peter
The best lawyers . They won an amazing case and a perfect outcome.
I was facing a very complicated shoplifting case that had the potential to result in a criminal conviction, which would have impacted my future. From the very beginning, Mr. Peter provided a sense of reassurance, clearly explaining my options and developing a strategy that would give me the best chance of a positive outcome.
His knowledge of the law is extensive, and his attention to detail in my case was remarkable. He was incredibly proactive, always staying ahead of any developments and keeping me well-informed throughout the entire process. Thanks to his expertise and dedication, I was able to avoid a criminal conviction, which was a huge relief.
I cannot recommend Mr. Peter highly enough. He is not only a skilled and knowledgeable lawyer but also someone who genuinely cares about his clients' well-being. If you're facing any legal challenges, especially something as serious as a shoplifting charge, I highly recommend reaching out to Mr. Peter. You won’t be disappointed!
Peter is empathetic, professional and patient. I would highly recommend this place to anyone.
"I cannot recommend Peter highly enough. His deep knowledge and meticulous attention to detail set him apart from other solicitors. He leaves no stone unturned, ensuring the best possible outcome every time. His professionalism and dedication are truly exceptional, and his ability to achieve incredible results speaks for itself. If you need a solicitor who is thorough, reliable, and highly skilled, Peter is the one to trust."
Peter and his team at The Australian Legal Practice are very knowledgeable and friendly to deal with.

I recently faced a high range drink driving charge, which had me extremely anxious due to the potential consequences: a three-year license loss and up to 18 months of imprisonment. Initially, I consulted a different lawyer, but instead of easing my concerns, they only heightened my fears. It wasn’t until a friend recommended Peter Tannous at The Australian Legal Practice that I finally found the support I needed.
From our first meeting, Peter’s approach was reassuring and professional. He didn’t just focus on the legalities; he also provided much-needed mental support, urging me not to worry and explaining my options clearly. Thanks to his guidance and expertise, the outcome was far better than expected.
I was convicted but received much lighter than the worst-case scenario I feared. Peter’s understanding and dedication were invaluable during this challenging time.
If you need a solicitor who will not only handle your case professionally but also provide genuine support, I highly recommend Peter Tannous and The Australian Legal Practice.
Highly recommend criminal lawyers in Burwood. Very strategic and successful in domestic violence and AVO cases. They’ve won my friends case
I would like to thank Peter and his team for all of their support.
Their professionalism and vast knowledge made the whole process so simple and straightforward.
I highly recommend Australian Legal Practices to anyone seeking any legal services.
Peter and his team have been servicing me and my family for several years now and has consistently provided exceptional service and sound and helpful advice.
I highly recommend Australian Legal Practice for anyone who is looking for legal advice or services.
Very professional solicitor and excellent service. If you are in trouble, trust him to help you out.
Great service, excellent advise!
Here is Peter, who I think is the most professional solicitor in Australia. He always gives me the most professional advice. Most of the time he always solved the problems I faced even the most difficult criminal cases

Peter has been a great support and encouragement during a great difficulty of my life. He is very knowledgable, experienced and delivers great results. I would like to thank every member of the Australian Legal Practice. It is great to see that there are solicitors out there who genuinely want to see true justice be done.
Thank you Peter. You're a good person and very professional.
Very unprofessional. I had met with one of the staff who gave me an initial consultation pending my motor vehicle incident. After providing the details and information of the incident, they seemed positive in the assessment of an outcome of the case. I enquired about the how much the costs would be and the payment options for moving forward. They informed me they would get back to me by the end of the week as Peter their principle was in court and busy. I have heard nothing and until I called back to ask what was happening on the 2nd week, I was informed by the receptionist that Peter does not accept and would not provide a reason why. Fairly upsetting and unfair way to be treated and have your time wasted like this.
EDIT: Clearly if you took the fraction of time over the two weeks to care about a potential client who asked "Do you have any payment plans or options?" and you simply responded "No, we don't unfortunately have any payment plans or options due to (so and so). Please let us know if you would like to still continue" - We probably be working together right now solving the bigger problem. But sure, this FREE consultation resulted in both a waste of your time and mine.
Peter is an amazing person as he is a lawyer, I recommend you see him before anyone else 👍
Peter was very helpful with a local council issue
Very professional and gave us a positive outcome. Peter has a genuine care and approach towards his clients. Helpful office team. Thank you very much.
Highly recommended. Excellent service and process done efficiently.
The best criminal lawyers in Burwood
I know Peter from last 4 years. He is very professional and is the best in town. His team is smart and knowledgeable. Totally impressed by the service.
Thank you to the team at The Australian Legal Practice for you support.
Professional and punctual with knowledge and skills that always kept us positive. Thank you for everything ❤️
The Australian Legal Practice were fantastic and provided professional advice. They made the process seem easy and were well priced. I would recommend them.
Very unprofessional and rude. Would not recommend, went in person and was appalled at how they treated me. Find a lawyer that cares for you not for your money.
Edit: Your response is a cop out to deflect the issue. You know exactly who I am. People should stay away from these lawyers , I have made reviews in the past, I am a real person that has had a shocking experience with your firm. Unprofessional!

Best ever experience with Peter Tannous, great advice from him in my legal matters, especially purchasing my property. Thanks Peter
My family and friends have been using Peter's services for over a decade, and (knock on wood) he hasn't let us down even once.
Also, he always sets realistic expectations, even when successfully doing much more.
Peter was very timely help. Who shared time to visit blue mountain to physically ascertain the legality of the issue. Thanks again
Peter helped me answer my questions and resolve my concerns. He is a solicitor I will recommend to my families and friends.

Our company engaged Peter at The Australian Legal Practice approx 2 years ago for a major complex matter for Commercial litigation. Our team was comfortable and confident with Peter and his team. We continue to instruct Peter and his team on complex and simple matters and consider him part of our team. I would highly recommend the Australian Legal Practice in good confidence.

Was a customer here a while back, and the service and communication I received was good and helpful. Several years later I hired a different law firm to do a similar thing, and they charged much less than what Peter did. Also, the subsequent lawyer I hired had a law degree from a well respected university, not just a diploma of law, which raises questions as to why Peter charged so much more than them.
I never though i could win my case but i did. All thanks to Peter Tannous who did a awesome job for me and was very professional with dealing with all aspects lof my case. A big Thanks to Peter .
The lawyers where very professional and obtained a great results for me
This Law Firm is very professional and strategic in every aspect. The lawyers obtained a successful result. I would recommend them to anyone.
Very Professional and knowledgeable law firm.
