A Brisbane criminal lawyer accused of fleecing legal aid will have to wait until Christmas for prosecutors to complete an analysis of his firm's finances.

A lawyer for Adam Magill, who did not appear, told Brisbane Magistrates Court on Monday they were not pleased with the delay, but accepted the analysis would now not be ready until December 20.

Magill is facing two counts of aggravated fraud, fraudulent falsification of records and aggravated money laundering.

The charges followed an 18-month investigation by the Crime and Corruption Commission, which resulted in a number of Brisbane's legal fraternity being arrested.

Earlier this month, Magill was fined $9600 for repeatedly contacting people he is not allowed to under the terms of his bail.

His money laundering and fraud charges were adjourned until December 6, when prosecutors are expected to give an update on the progress of the financial analysis.
