Mr McConnell’s experience is vast, having defended clients on hundreds of cases of the most serious charges of murder, rape, robbery, and drug trafficking. Recently, Mr McConnell was a part of the ground-breaking Court of Appeal decision of R v Dayney [2020] QCA 264 which saw his client’s murder conviction overturned and a retrial ordered based on a particularly unique and technical legal argument. Over the past several years, Mr McConnell has worked closely and garnered relationships with some of the best barristers in Queensland and is able to offer and provide a true legal team to defend a client’s case.

Commencing a legal practice that focuses solely on criminal and traffic law defence allows Mr McConnell to concentrate the experience he has gained into every one of his cases. He understands that being charged with any offence is one of the most difficult and overwhelming times in a person’s life and works diligently to ensure that his clients are thoroughly advised of each of their options in order to achieve the best possible outcome.
