What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Wollongong clients of this criminal law practice repeatedly single out Mehmet Yilmaz, describing his representation as professional, knowledgeable and supportive across many accounts. Reviewers often mention how quickly he returns calls, texts and emails, and how plainly he sets out charges, court procedures and the choices open to them, so that people feel properly briefed instead of lost. The matters spoken of most include traffic charges such as driving while suspended and red light infringements, with accounts describing thorough preparation and direct dealings with police and the court that produced outcomes including a good behaviour bond with no conviction recorded and a not guilty finding.

A theme running through the feedback is his steady, reassuring manner, which contributors say made daunting court dates easier to handle, and one customer recalls help received on Christmas Day itself. Honesty, sensible advice about what to do next and fees described as fair appear again and again, as does the quiet, private setting of the office close to the courthouse. Behind all of it sits evident commitment to each individual matter, with close attention to detail and continuing communication from first contact through to the final result.

Professional service, excellent attention to detail, thank you Sir Yilmaz for your excellent services. Your advice is greatly appreciated, the reflection is pure and honest.

I highly recommend Mehmet Yılmaz from my criminal lawyers. From start to finish, he was professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely committed to achieving the best possible outcome for me. He took the time to explain every step of the process in clear, simple terms, which made a stressful situation feel much more manageable. What really stood out was his responsiveness and attention to detail, I always felt like a priority. Their expertise and strategic thinking gave me complete confidence throughout my case. He achieved the best possible outcome for me! If you’re looking for someone who is not only highly skilled but also truly cares about their clients, this is the lawyer you want on your side.

I engaged Mehmet from My Criminal Lawyers for a tricky traffic offence that I had to attend court for. Mehmet promptly answered my initial telephone call, went above and beyond to reassure me and provide information to assist no obligation. His pricing is very reasonable; he always answered my calls texts or emails promptly and worked with the police and court to get the best outcome for my case. Mehmet has a calming nature about him and is very knowledgeable and likeable. I highly recommend Mehmet and My Criminal Lawyers and if my family or friends ever require a Lawyer, I will be sending them Mehmet's way.

Mehmet is an absolute lifesaver. I was charged with driving while suspended and was worried about the long-term impact of a conviction. He managed to secure a 6-month CRO with no conviction recorded. The communication throughout the process was excellent, and the result speaks for itself. Highly recommended.
