Legal Aid NSW is established under the Legal Aid Commission Act 1979 of New South Wales and is an independent statutory body. It provide legal aid and other legal services to disadvantaged people. We assist socially and economically disadvantaged people to understand and protect their rights. One of the functions of the legal system is to safeguard people's rights. The legal system can only perform this protective role if people have equitable access to it. Legal Aid NSW plays a special role in improving access to justice by providing a range of legal service to these disadvantaged people, with special emphasis on these target groups. Legal Aid NSW provides free legal advice and minor assistance at our city central office and 21 regional offices, numerous advice clinics located in various metropolitan and country centres, and specialist services. Contact information for your local legal aid office can be found on the Legal Aid NSW Website
