Jiabei Qi
Lawyer
Jiabei is a bilingual criminal defence lawyer fluent in both Mandarin and English. She is committed to delivering clear, culturally aware legal advice and strong advocacy to her clients.
Jiabei has acted in a wide range of criminal matters including traffic charges, domestic violence offences, serious drug offences, sexual offences, complex fraud cases, property offences, animal trafficking matters and charges under the Customs Act.
Jiabei has appeared regularly in courts across Queensland and has experience with matters arising in the Northern Territory, South Australia and New South Wales. She works closely with reputable counsels to ensure that her clients receive thorough, strategic and effective representation throughout all stages of the criminal process.
Jiabei has worked in the Queensland legal industry since 2018. She has forged a reputation as a tough and tenacious advocate. She is one of only a handful of lawyers practicing in criminal defence in Queensland who can speak both English and Mandarin. She provides an excellent service to the Chinese community in Queensland.
The Courtroom can be an extremely challenging environment without a lawyer who speak your languages and understand your culture. Fortunately for Jiabei’s clients, Jiabei’s role as a bilingual Chinese lawyer enables her to appear in court and instruct counsels with precision, bridging cultural and language gaps for Chinese-speaking clients across Australia.
