New lawyer once more for murder-accused

Murder-accused Gable Tostee has fronted a Queensland court with another new lawyer by his side.

Tostee is facing one charge of murder following the death of New Zealand tourist Warriena Wright in August last year, after she fell from the balcony of his high-rise apartment on the Gold Coast.

The 28-year-old faced Southport Magistrates Court on Monday alongside lawyer Nick Dore, his third legal representative since his arrest.

Tostee has previously been represented by Gold Coast-based Potts Lawyers and civil liberties crusader Terry O'Gorman.

It's been reported a woman advising Tostee's family, Julie Frost, is behind the split, with the two leading legal firms with the Legal Services Commission confirming to the Gold Coast Bulletin a complaint had been made by one of the firms about Ms Frost's involvement.

Tostee's matter has been adjourned until March 13 for a committal mention with the accused to remain on bail with strict conditions.
