Let me introduce myself.

Hi, I'm Paul Cook

I’m the Principal of Sherlock Legal.

Prior to being admitted as a Barrister and Solicitor, I served in the Royal Australian Air Force, and subsequently in the Western Australia Police Force (for 14 years).

Often people need a lawyer at difficult or stressful times in their life. My goal is to help you through this time, get you the best result, and to minimise your stress as much as possible.

I became a Barrister and Solicitor to help everyday Western Australians understand and fix their complicated legal problems.

Trusted legal counsel. Nothing fancy.
