Become a legal aid service provider

Want to make a difference in your community and access varied and interesting work for your firm?

Legal Aid Queensland works with about 300 private law firms around the state to deliver duty lawyer services and legal representation to disadvantaged Queenslanders. This statewide network ensures demand for legal aid services is met and clients can still receive legal help if they can’t access a local Legal Aid Queensland office.

Whether your firm specialises in criminal, civil or family law, we’d love you to join the legal aid team.
