Legal Aid Commission of NSW
Administer funds for Community Legal Centres to provide legal representation and advice across NSW as well as Domestic Violence Court Assistance. Their role is to make the justice system accessible to the financially disadvantaged, disabled, people from NESB, women, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders, and those who are institutionalised and experience difficulties when enforcing their rights and defending claims against them. If more than legal advice is needed, they are able to provide legal representation, as they work in partnership with private lawyers who represented nearly half of all legally aided people in case matters. They provide grants of legal aid for civil, family, criminal, administrative law, mental health and veterans matters. For most services clients must meet their means and merit tests. In some cases clients repay the full cost of their case when it is finalised.

I’m currently in treatment at canarven street and I have been working for over a year now and it’s difficult to get to the chemist on time and to see anyone at canarven street because of my work hours, I have been put on daily pick ups until 30/11/2022 when I do a test. This was changed from weekly to daily because I came in and did a sample and it wasn’t registering a temperature or anything in my sample including methadone which is impossible so my worker assumed that I was trying it on somehow and put me on daily pick ups. It was definitely a faulty test and because I didn’t hang around to do another one, she thought the worst, I understand why but I’m working away soon and I will need a 3-4 day take out but can’t get hold of my worker no matter how many messages I leave she is always busy and never calls me back so what can I do??? I’m working away in Belfast this month
