Courts and tribunals serving Strathpine
Most Strathpine legal matters start at Pine Rivers Magistrates Court. Magistrates Courts in Queensland hear summary criminal matters, conduct committals on indictable charges, deal with domestic-violence and peace-and-good-behaviour orders, and decide civil claims up to $150,000. They also handle most traffic-court work, including drink-driving and demerit-point appeals. Indictable criminal matters and civil claims between $150,000 and $750,000 proceed on committal or transfer to the Brisbane registry of the District and Supreme Courts of Queensland. The most serious criminal trials and civil claims above $750,000 — together with appellate work — are heard in the Supreme Court of Queensland, with most south-east Queensland matters listed in Brisbane and regional matters listed in Townsville, Rockhampton, Cairns, or Mackay depending on the location of the matter. Tribunal work for consumer, tenancy, body-corporate, guardianship, and administrative-review matters is heard by the Queensland Civil and Administrative Tribunal (QCAT), which sits in Brisbane and runs many regional matters by phone or video — so a Strathpine party can usually appear without travelling. Family-law matters proceed in the Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia, with most south-east Queensland filings in the Brisbane registry and regional matters running through the nearest registry on circuit.

Strathpine legal help — FAQs
- What happens after I submit my enquiry?
- Most enquiries are routed to a verified partner firm without delay, including out of hours via our 24/7 AI agent on 1800 959 981. Urgent matters — bail applications, domestic-violence protection orders, mention dates listed for today or tomorrow — are prioritised in the queue, and we route those first.
- Which courts will my lawyer attend in Strathpine?
- Most local matters are heard at Pine Rivers Magistrates Court. Indictable criminal matters and higher-value civil claims circuit through the Brisbane registry of the District and Supreme Courts of Queensland. QCAT matters (consumer, tenancy, body-corporate, guardianship) are typically run by phone or video from QCAT's Brisbane registry, so you may not need to travel. Family law matters proceed in the Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia in the nearest registry on circuit.
- Do you cover Bald Hills, Bray Park, Lawnton, Petrie as well?
- Yes. Our Queensland partner-firm network covers Strathpine and the surrounding district, including Bald Hills, Bray Park, Lawnton, Petrie. Many matters can be handled remotely without travel to either the firm or the court. Where in-person attendance is required, the partner firm will tell you upfront which courthouse and on what date.
- What if there is no specialist in Strathpine for my matter?
- Many specialised practice areas — for example, complex commercial litigation, large-scale personal injury, or specialised tax matters — are practised by firms in Brisbane or the major regional centres rather than locally. If your matter sits in one of those categories, we route to a Queensland partner firm that does the work routinely, and the engagement is generally run by phone, email, and video without needing local attendance.
- Can I get help by phone or video if I am in Strathpine?
- Yes. Phone and video consultations are standard for most Queensland matters. Initial fixed-fee advice, signature on consent documents, and conferences in family, property, and commercial matters all routinely run remotely. In-person meetings are available where the matter calls for them — for example, complex evidence-heavy matters or a court appearance scheduled at Pine Rivers Magistrates Court.
- Is there a cost for the LawyerLink referral service?
- LawyerLink's referral service is free to consumers. The partner firm sets and quotes its own fees directly to you before any work commences. We never add a surcharge on top of the firm's fees and we do not take a clip on settlements or judgments. Any costs arrangement is between you and the firm.
