The whole time I felt supported and well informed about what would happen and what our desired outcome was. Adrian was also very knowledgeable and was always on hand with good advice about anything I had questions about.
Overall, my experience was one of profound professionalism and excellent service.
Thank you Adrian and the team at Hugo Law.

The other reviews appear to be fake and from a competing law firm as all accounts only have one other review (being the other firm) and were made at the same time. Very damaging and should be legal.
If you have any doubt, just give the team a call and talk to them yourself!
They are your Number 1 criminal lawyers to go to nothing is ever to complex for these guys they will always find a way to defend you and your situation.
Max was not only knowledgeable but also incredibly caring. He took the time to listen to my concerns and was always available whenever I needed him. Whether it was a quick phone call or an in-depth discussion about the details of my case, Max made sure I felt supported and informed every step of the way.
The dedication and expertise that Max and the HUGO Law Firm demonstrated have truly made a difference in my life. I highly recommend Max Hasler and the entire team at HUGO Law Firm to anyone in need of legal advice in the ACT. Their professionalism, compassion, and availability are second to none.
Thank you, Max and HUGO Law Firm, for your exceptional service!
Highly recommend
Adrian was so professional with his explanations of what to expect. He was also compassionate and listened to me. I asked so many questions. He looked at me and said “let us do our job”, and “follow his directions”.
The Barrister he engaged to my case was excellent. Over weeks and months, with hearings in between, waiting for the court date and the final hearings I was so nervous and asked too many questions again. Again, “let us do our job”. A confidence boost again from Adrian.
The Barrister asked all the right questions which I wanted him to ask. He and Adrian provided all the facts and statements that were vital to the Magistrates decisions.
We got the best outcome, no convictions.
I thank Adrian and his team for their patience, guidance, advice, and compassion through my heartbreaking ordeal. His advice “let us do our job” was the best advice leading to the best result.
I would highly recommend Adrian at HugoLaw. He gets the job done!
This is my tribute to send 100% positive feedback for Adrian McKenna at McKenna Taylor, to give heartfelt thanks for helping get part of my life back when found not guilty by the ACT Magistrates Court.
I first started being represented by Adrian in late 2018 after having false criminal charges laid against me by my estranged wife. Adrian McKenna did not judge me, showed me respect whist my prior life was betrayed in front of him as me being violet man, one thing I have always prided myself on that I wasn’t. Adrian supported me completely in my decision to plead not guilty to all charges.
From the very beginning, as I was escorted to interview, Adrian was on point only wanting the facts, he was easy to understand and stuck by me through everything and never once made me feel unsupported. He worked closely with my family in getting prepared and assisted in finding me a Family Lawyer to help me navigate and understand the complexity of the charges laid against me and the impact it would have on me and my 5 children.
My hearing took 4 days and Adrian was nothing short of brilliant, myself and family were taken back by his knowledge and preparation into my case that was masterful and clever to keep it simple that the evidence does not lie.
Adrian McKenna is just put simply an amazing Criminal Lawyer that communicates with conviction and passion in the court room. His intellect and ability to show empathy and then uplift the situation with positivity was noted by my family and appreciated so much throughout the hearing.
Throughout the whole ordeal, Adrian reassured me with honesty, very directly kept me on point that Criminal cases are based on evidence and at no point does Family Court have any place in a Criminal matter. Words that were hard to hear, but now I understand.
I also worked with other members of McKenna Taylor and all within the firm were professional and respectful. I strongly recommend Adrian McKenna and McKenna Taylor for your criminal matter. You will be doing yourself a disservice from the beginning if you don’t.
At the end of the day, Max achieved the best possible outcome for me.
Max was very professional in his dealings regarding my situation from beginning to end, everything was explained to me and Max followed through.
I would highly recommend Max to anyone & I would gladly use Max again if I needed him.
She achieved the result I hoped for
and I am so pleased that the Hugo Law Group was recommended to me. They really do adhere to their motto of there being two sides to every story.
With appreciation and gratitude

I was as stressed as stressed could be and after ringing around for a few lawyers I did not make another call after Adrian .
I was looking at serious charges and after Adrian sorted me out I got minimal sentencing , even from the moment I talked to him on the phone I felt comfortable , cannot Reccomend Adrian enough . Thanks mate
The negative reviews appear to be fake and do not represent a true experience with McKenna Taylor.
Max took over one of the legal disagreement of mine. He was highly professional, understanding and compassionate. Max is highly educated, informed with current legislation and provides a welcoming environment. He is honest about recommendations.
Dealing with complex disabilities both staff member were accommodating to myself, my needs and my support animal.

A driver’s licence represents a level of freedom and convenience, and when this is at risk, the repercussions can be far-reaching. On a personal level, it may restrict your ability to fulfil personal and family commitments, while professionally, it could impact your current employment or limit future opportunities.
As highly experienced and esteemed traffic defence lawyers in Perth, we understand the overwhelming nature of being charged or convicted of a traffic offence. During this challenging time, engaging an experienced and knowledgeable traffic lawyer is crucial. A traffic law specialist from Hugo Law Group can work with you to explain the charges, potential outcomes, and the different avenues to pursue, including handling licence appeals.
Traffic charges can encompass a range of offences, including drink and drug driving, negligent driving, and driving causing death or grievous bodily harm. Each charge differs depending on the context, with its own technical nuances. As traffic law specialists, we can navigate these differences to build the most strategic defence possible.
The spectrum of traffic law offences in Western Australia is vast and sometimes quite complex, ranging from driver’s licence and registration offences to aggravated dangerous driving occasioning death. The associated penalties also vary, from monetary fines to disqualification of your driver’s licence. For serious offences such as negligent or culpable driving causing death or grievous bodily harm, gaol time is a significant risk.
Considering the charges, potential penalties, and the evidence, our team of specialist traffic lawyers can help you determine the best path forward.
Our Expertise
Navigating court processes in Perth
Navigating the court processes for traffic offences can vary. In some cases, attending court may not be required, and instead, a traffic infringement notice will be issued, resulting in an automatic loss of licence. In other instances, you may be required to appear before a magistrate in court or in some rare cases, a judge. For more serious traffic offences community corrections orders or imprisonment may also form part of the sentence, in addition to the loss of your licence.
As our lawyers appear in courts across Western Australia on a daily basis, we have the experience needed to navigate these processes with confidence and competency.
Apart from the immediate consequences, there may be long-term implications for your driving record when dealing with a traffic offence. Separate from your criminal history, a driving record details your traffic history, including demerit point loss and driving offences where you were found guilty by court.
Both your criminal record and driving record can be disclosed when employers or potential employers conduct criminal record checks. This underscores the importance of engaging an experienced traffic offence lawyer as soon as possible.
With the ability to objectively assess the facts of the case and find the most strategic and effective way forward, the team at Hugo Law Group always puts your best interests first.

Traffic law FAQs for Perth
Yes, traffic offences such as drink driving are considered criminal offences in Perth. Charges for drink driving typically occur if the blood alcohol concentration (BAC) in your breath is higher than the prescribed amount. It is important to note that the prescribed BAC amount may differ for different individuals. For example, the BAC for drivers with a full licence is 0.05 or higher, whereas those driving with L Plates or P Plates are required to have a BAC of zero.
Certain road rules and traffic laws apply to all properties, whether they are public or private, in Western Australia. This means that certain offences, such as those where very serious injuries occur from a vehicle, may apply, whether you are on a highway, in a supermarket car park, or driving on private property. While some driving laws may not apply on private property that is not widely open to the public, it is important to note the distinction between private property, where these laws do not apply, and a private road—open to the public for driving—where these laws do, in fact, apply.
