VLA provides duty lawyer services, either by using its own staff or by funding private lawyers at:
- most Magistrates' Courts (criminal, crimes, family violence);
- the Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal (anti-discrimination, civil, guardianship and tenancy matters);
- Melbourne Magistrates' Court (civil, criminal and Infringements Court special circumstances lists);
- all Children's Courts (family division and criminal);
- the Family Court;
- the Federal Magistrates Court (Migration List);
- the Administrative Appeals Tribunal; and
- Mental Health Review Board (all Melbourne in-patient services).
Duty lawyers can help if you have not had the opportunity to see a lawyer before going to court. Before your court date, you should ring the court Registrar to check whether duty lawyers are available on that date. You should see a lawyer before you go to court, as duty lawyers may not be able to help everyone.
