EnquireMy Community Legal
My Community Legal gives law students the invaluable opportunity to gain first-hand experience in providing free legal services to those unable to afford legal advice. Through the partnership between Faculty of Business, Law and Arts and My Community Legal, SLJ students are able to apply for a voluntary placement at My Community Legal with approved applicants working in the centre one day per week. During their placements, SLJ students will gain insight into holistic lawyering, a philosophy that sees legal officers motivated by neither government diktat nor commercial opportunity, but rather by the belief in access to justice for all. My Community Legal is accredited by the National Association of Community Legal Centres and is an ACNC registered charity.
