Bill Doogue Email & Phone Number

I help individuals facing police investigations or regulatory charges, change the narrative and regain control over their circumstances. Changing the narrative often involves running a parallel investigation or running an investigation prior to the police or regulatory bodies such as ASIC or AFP getting involved. In fact, a large part of what I do is to try to stop my clients being charged in the first instance!An accredited criminal law specialist and director of Doogue + George, I have represented many high profile individuals, including business leaders, federal and state cabinet ministers and religious leaders.My extensive experience includes collaborating with chief corporate counsels for some of Australia’s largest corporations, providing strategic advice on potential legal challenges - both criminal and quasi-criminal.I also work on transnational criminal cases involving witnesses and government authorities in foreign countries, including Singapore, Indonesia, China and Papua New Guinea. I am honoured to be recognised by the Doyle’s Guide as one of Australia’s top five criminal lawyers. This independent directory highlights the country’s best lawyers, barristers and firms, all voted onto the guide by their clients and industry peers.𝐊𝐞𝐲 𝐞𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐭𝐢𝐬𝐞In my legal practise, I work primarily in the following areas:►White Collar & Financial Crime► Tax Fraud & Tax Evasion► Bribery & Corruption (AFP, ASIC & IBAC Investigations)► International Extradition► Transnational Criminal Law. Beyond white-collar crime, my firm has represented more than 60 witnesses in several high-profile Royal Commissions (including the Institutional Sexual Abuse Royal and Trade Union Royal commissions ), receiving referrals from the commissions themselves as well as from the legal services representing witnesses and from other lawyers. Asked why my firm attracts such a large number of high profile clients from across Australia, my response is: they know they are in safe hands! They are reassured by the fact that we handle some of the largest white-collar cases in the country and have considerable experience in complex litigation cases. They also appreciate that while we represent many household names and are regularly in the media, we don’t actively court publicity around our cases and work hard at safeguarding the anonymity of our clients. In fact, many of our great success stories, go untold.For confidential consultations, feel free to reach out at +61 3 9670 5111.
