Legal Assistance Services

If you need legal help, there are community organisations, government-funded services and  private legal services that can help you.

If you have a legal problem or want to find out information about the law, Tasmania Legal Aid may be able to help. It offers free advice on what you may need to do to solve your legal problem, although it does not give legal advice on all matters.

If you need to find a lawyer, the Law Society of Tasmania can refer you to a solicitor who is practising in the area of law relevant to your problem.

If you have used a lawyer and want to make a complaint or ask a question about the service you received, the Legal Profession Board of Tasmania can help.
