What we do
Upholding your right to justice
We work to uphold Victorians' right to justice, with a focus on protecting some of the most vulnerable and disadvantaged members of our community.
We take on important cases and join campaigns which aim to improve the law and make it fairer for all Victorians. Some of the people we have helped tell their stories below.
Fighting for a fair go in insurance
After Philip, his partner, Lyn, and daughter Fern defended their home from the Black Saturday bushfires, they had no idea that having an insurance claim settled would be such a difficult battle.
Closing the door on dishonest sales tactics
Like many newly arrived migrants in Australia, Bahati Watuta was seen as an easy target by aggressive door-to-door sales people. In his new home town of Shepparton, Bahati was constantly approached by door-to-door vendors.
Helping families put children first
Casey* and her former partner separated when their daughter was very young. During that time, Casey says she was flexible about the amount of time father and daughter spent together but the visits were irregular.
Giving young people a second chance
