Timpano Legal Recognised in Doyle’s Guide 2025 Rankings

Leading criminal defence firm and founding director acknowledged by legal peers across Western Australia.

Timpano Legal has been named a Leading Criminal Defence Law Firm in the Doyle’s Guide 2025 rankings, marking 10 consecutive years of recognition in these prestigious rankings. With founding director Laura Willox recognised as a Recommended Criminal Defence Lawyer in Western Australia.

How are Doyle’s Guide rankings determined?

Doyle’s Guide rankings are determined through extensive peer review research, identifying lawyers and firms based on their expertise and abilities in criminal law matters. The guide conducts interviews with clients, peers and relevant industry bodies throughout the Western Australian legal market, creating rankings based solely on merit and capability.

The 2025 listings detail solicitors and firms practising in criminal law who have been identified by fellow WA criminal lawyers and barristers for their demonstrated expertise in the area. This peer-review methodology ensures the rankings reflect genuine professional recognition within the legal community.

“This acknowledgement from fellow criminal lawyers who see our work in courts every day validates our commitment to providing compassionate, expert defence for every client.” says Laura Willox, who established Timpano Legal in 2008.

Timpano Legal’s inclusion places it among a select group of practices recognised for excellence in criminal defence across Western Australia. The firm joins only 11 other practices in achieving Third Tier status or above in the 2025 rankings.

Laura Willox’s individual recognition as a Recommended Criminal Defence Lawyer further reinforces the firm’s standing in the legal community. The individual rankings identify lawyers who have earned particular respect from their peers for their criminal law expertise and courtroom abilities.

The dual recognition demonstrates Timpano Legal’s established position within Perth’s criminal defence landscape. Since 2008, the firm has built its reputation on addressing clients’ legal, social and personal needs as interconnected issues rather than treating them in isolation.
