Legal Advice

You may wish to seek advice regarding spouse maintenance, restraining orders, parenting plans, protection of property, divorce and property settlements. Free legal advice on most legal problems is available by telephone and by appointment at most Legal Services Commission offices. If you need a lawyer, you can apply for legal aid through any of the offices of the Legal Services Commission or through many private lawyers.

The Women’s Legal Service in South Australia provides a free and confidential legal service to women by telephone or appointment. If you would prefer to talk to an indigenous worker please ask.

The Women’s Legal Service may provide a volunteer to accompany women to court on matters to do with domestic violence.

Women’s Information Service is another service that may be able to assist with free legal advice.
