Legal help
Lawyers
It is advisable to obtain legal advice before you make a decision about what to do or apply to the Court. A lawyer can help you understand your legal rights and responsibilities. They can also explain how the law applies to your case.
You can get legal advice from a:
- legal aid office
- community legal centre, or
- private law firm.
Court staff are not permitted by law to give you legal advice and cannot refer you to a private lawyer.
The list below gives contact details of organisations that might be able to provide free or low-cost legal advice or assistance or the services of a lawyer. Listing the organisations below is not an endorsement of material on those sites, or of any associated organisation, product or service.
