ACT Law Society
The ACT Law Society can help by providing referrals to local law firms with expertise in a particular area of law, or to lawyers who speak a particular language. We can also refer callers to local free or low cost legal services. The ACT Law Society is not a legal service and cannot provide legal advice. We have information about other options on our website.
We also administer the ACT Pro Bono Clearing House, which matches people and organisations in genuine need of pro bono legal assistance with either a law firm or a Community Legal Centre able to provide that assistance. Please note that the Pro Bono Clearing House does not deal with Family Law matters.
Small Business Legal Advice Clinic
The University of Canberra, in conjunction with Legal Aid ACT, runs the Small Business Legal Advice Clinic. The Clinic provides affordable advice on legal areas concerning small businesses, including contracts, debt recovery, dispute resolution, employment law, business law, insurance, intellectual property and more.
Consultation sessions are 30 minutes, free of charge and available between 2.00pm and 5.00pm on a Thursday. To make an appointment you can contact Legal Aid ACT and let them know you would like an appointment at the Clinic.
