The short answer
As of October 2026, the 3 highest-ranked lawyers in Australia on the Starworks directory are Criminal Law Group - Sydney Criminal & Traffic Lawyers 🥇 (5.0 stars from 1,093 Google reviews), Aussizz Migration & Education Consultants - Aussizz Group Mount Gravatt (5.0 stars from 955 Google reviews) and Lane & Lane Conveyancing and Property Law (5.0 stars from 771 Google reviews).
Starworks ranks the 496 highest-rated lawyers in Australia, holding 97,835 Google reviews between them. Across those 496 the median rating is 5.0 stars from a median of 141 reviews. Of those 496, all are rated 4.5 or better and 394 have passed 100 reviews. The most-reviewed carries 1,300 reviews, more than the top-ranked lawyer holds, which is why rating alone does not set the order.
Every figure here is computed from Google review data that Starworks collects for lawyers in Australia, recalculated when this page rebuilds. Placement on this list cannot be bought.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who are the best lawyers in Australia?
As of October 2026, the 3 highest-ranked lawyers in Australia on the Starworks directory are Criminal Law Group - Sydney Criminal & Traffic Lawyers 🥇 (5.0 stars from 1,093 Google reviews), Aussizz Migration & Education Consultants - Aussizz Group Mount Gravatt (5.0 stars from 955 Google reviews) and Lane & Lane Conveyancing and Property Law (5.0 stars from 771 Google reviews). Every figure here is computed from Google review data that Starworks collects for lawyers in Australia, recalculated when this page rebuilds. Placement on this list cannot be bought.
How many lawyers does Starworks rank in Australia?
Starworks ranks the 496 highest-rated lawyers in Australia, holding 97,835 Google reviews between them. Across those 496 the median rating is 5.0 stars from a median of 141 reviews. Of those 496, all are rated 4.5 or better and 394 have passed 100 reviews. The most-reviewed carries 1,300 reviews, more than the top-ranked lawyer holds, which is why rating alone does not set the order.
How does Starworks rank lawyers nationally?
To rank lawyers across Australia, Starworks combines each business's Google star rating, its review volume, and whether customers can reach it by website and phone. Volume is weighted because it shows how much evidence stands behind a rating, so a 4.9-star lawyer with 200 reviews ranks above a 5-star one with 5 reviews. Placement cannot be bought. For scale, the median rating across the 496 highest-rated lawyers in Australia is 5.0 stars from a median of 141 reviews.
Where can I find the best lawyers in my city?
Starworks publishes a separate ranking for lawyers in every Australian city and suburb it holds enough data for, each built from that place's own Google review record rather than from this national list. Browse by city below.
Why does my lawyer business not appear in these national rankings?
Starworks ranks public Google Maps data, so a business needs a Google profile in the lawyer category carrying at least one review and a rating to be eligible. This national ranking of lawyers in Australia lists the top 50 of the 496 highest-rated lawyers; a business ranked outside them appears on its own city page wherever Starworks holds enough data for that city.
