Seeking payment from clients

Payment rules

Under s 40(4) of the Legal Aid Queensland Act 1997 and s 4.3 of the service agreement, a preferred supplier must not claim or seek to claim any payment from any client or former client in respect of any referral unless prior approval of Legal Aid Queensland is obtained. This does not included any initial contribution imposed by Legal Aid Queensland as a condition of a grant of legal assistance.
