Choosing legal help in Melbourne

Ask who will read your material

A central Melbourne meeting may be offered by a practice with several staff handling different tasks. Ask who will advise you, whether they will read documents beforehand and how questions after the meeting are handled. A short meeting price is difficult to compare without knowing the included preparation.

Use the Victorian office directory before travelling

Victoria Legal Aid’s office page distinguishes its Melbourne office from suburban and regional offices. It explains how to ask about an appointment. Use the published channel to confirm where and how the service can help; do not assume the central office is the only suitable contact.
