Galbally Parker started its practice as ‘Galbally Rolfe'. Founded in 1976, Galbally Rolfe was the oldest exclusive private firm of Criminal Defence Lawyers in Melbourne. We carry the legacy of being one of the best and most highly respected criminal law firms in Victoria, whilst continuing to evolve our practice to keep up with technological, legal and market developments.

In reflection of the change in leadership and the achievements that Ruth has accomplished for the firm, the name was changed in August 2019 to Galbally Parker Criminal Lawyers.Our experienced and dedicated team of criminal defence lawyers appear in all criminal jurisdictions in Australia, regularly conducting serious and complex criminal matters as well as summary and traffic matters. We have acted in some of the most prominent criminal matters in legal history and have assisted and defended countless individuals charged with criminal offences.

It was the case of Faruk Orman and it would not have been possible without the work of Ruth, who represented Faruk for over ten years, and our team of excellent professionals.Over our history, Galbally Rolfe (now Galbally Parker) has represented individuals in numerous high profile and extraordinary cases across Victoria and New South Wales.

Our firm has a history of changing the law, fighting for freedom and protecting individuals against
