Legal Aid Commission (ACT) (Legal Aid) helps people who:

  • live in the ACT or have a case in an ACT Court or Tribunal; and
  • need legal help but can’t afford a private lawyer.

Our mission is to promote a just society in the ACT by:

  • making sure people who are vulnerable or disadvantaged can get legal help to stand up for their rights;
  • helping the community better understand the law; and
  • working to change laws that unfairly impact the people we support.

We work towards this mission by providing high-quality legal services that respect diversity and help build trust in the legal system.
