Dan Toombs, the author of the book Disability and the Queensland Justice System, explains his journey as a lawyer new to the field as trying to find his ‘way through the labyrinth of disability and criminal law.’1 His useful book provides a complete guide for practitioners and researchers alike as to how to navigate the complicated Queensland system that purports to protect accused persons who suffer disabilities, particularly focusing on the Mental Health Act 2000 (Qld).
