Michael O’Brien
While his approach is empathetic and measured, Matthew is a firm and determined advocate who will not compromise when it comes to protecting his clients’ rights and interests.
Matthew McCarthy joined Fisher Dore Lawyers as a solicitor in January 2026, bringing with him a calm, thoughtful approach to helping people navigate some of the most stressful moments of their lives. Matthew understands that when someone seeks legal help, they are often feeling overwhelmed, uncertain, or anxious about what lies ahead. For this reason, he places strong emphasis on clear, open, and honest communication from the very first conversation.
Matthew is committed to ensuring his clients always understand what is happening in their matter, what their options are, and what to expect at each stage of the process. He takes the time to listen carefully, build genuine rapport, and tailor his advice to each individual’s circumstances.
He has a strong working knowledge of court processes and procedures, particularly in the Magistrates Court, where he regularly appears in Brisbane and a range of regional jurisdictions. His courtroom experience allows him to guide clients confidently through appearances, reducing uncertainty and helping them feel prepared and supported.
