Specialist Accreditation
Specialist Accreditation
A Mark of Excellence at Locker Law
At Locker Law, we take pride in delivering the highest standard of legal expertise and client service. Our Principal Solicitor, Bobby Locker, has achieved specialist accreditation in Criminal Law, a prestigious recognition awarded by the Law Society of New South Wales. This accreditation is not handed out lightly—it represents a rigorous assessment of skill, knowledge, and proven experience in the field of criminal law.
In fact, Bobby’s exceptional performance during the accreditation process was formally acknowledged by the Law Society of NSW as being “one of the top responses” received. His submission was so highly regarded that it was selected as a model example to guide future candidates pursuing accreditation.
What Does It Mean to Be an Accredited Specialist?
In the legal profession, the title of Accredited Specialist is reserved for solicitors who have demonstrated an exceptional level of knowledge, skill, and experience in a particular field of law. This formal recognition is granted by the Law Society of New South Wales through its Specialist Accreditation Scheme—a program designed to ensure that clients can identify solicitors who are true experts in their chosen area of practice.
Achieving this status is no simple feat. To become an Accredited Specialist, a solicitor must undergo a series of rigorous assessments covering legal knowledge, communication, client relations, and practical problem-solving. Each candidate is tested in real-world legal scenarios that reflect the complexities of modern legal practice. Only those who meet the Law Society’s high standards are granted this esteemed designation.
While many solicitors may refer to themselves as “experts” or “specialists,” only those who have been formally accredited by the Law Society are permitted to use the title “Accredited Specialist”. Those recognised under the scheme can display the official symbol confirming their credentials in their nominated area of law.
Ongoing Commitment to Legal Excellence
As part of his continuing professional obligations, Bobby Locker undertakes additional legal education and development each year to maintain his specialist certification. This ensures he remains fully up to date with the latest changes in criminal law, legal procedures, and case law developments—so that you, as the client, benefit from the most current, accurate, and strategic legal advice available.
Choosing an Accredited Specialist in Criminal Law means choosing a solicitor with a proven record of excellence, backed by the highest professional standards. At Locker Law, that’s exactly what you can expect.
