The Homeless Persons’ Legal Service (HPLS) provides free legal advice and assistance. Most clinics are open to anyone experiencing or at risk of homelessness. Some clinics are for women only – check the listings below. See what legal help we can give.
Where listings say ‘call for appointment’, you should call the number listed before turning up, to make sure a lawyer is available to help you.
If you are a support worker, you can fill out our online application and we will contact your client directly, to discuss their legal issue/s and, if appropriate, make an appointment for them to attend one of our clinics.
You can contact our office on (02) 8898 6545 or email us at [email protected].
