The Gold Coast Community Legal Centre & Advice Bureau Inc provides the entire Gold Coast community with free legal advice, prototype and collaborative project work, community legal information and general information and referrals.
Our mission is to maximize access to professional legal advice and services on behalf of persons who would otherwise be unable to access such advice or services
The Gold Coast Community Legal Centre & Advice Bureau Inc is the Gold Coast’s only funded and accredited full time operating Community Legal Centre. We operate from 8.30am until 4pm Monday to Friday.
We provide advice and assistance by way of face-to-face appointments, as well as providing a day time walk-in service. Additionally, we aim to establish prototype and collaborative projects with other Centres in Queensland to better assist and inform the Gold Coast community.
Our Centre provides initial legal advice which is not means or merit tested so residents of the Gold Coast can access our service. However, further ongoing assistance and casework is provided at the Centres discretion to vulnerable people who are most in need, including those who are unsuccessful in a grant of Legal Aid and do not have the resources to fund their own private legal assistance and representation.
