Law Aid

Law Aid is a not-for-profit scheme that provides funding for civil disbursements in civil litigation matters undertaken by law firms on a pro bono and “no-win, no-fee” basis. The scheme is managed by the Law Institute of Victoria and the Victorian Bar Council, with the goal of bridging the gap between individuals who cannot afford legal costs and the legal practitioners who are willing to help.

Law Aid is based in Melbourne, Victoria, and provides services to Victorians who require assistance with civil litigation matters. The scheme's head office is located in the Law Courts precinct in Melbourne, and can be contacted by phone or email.

Law Aid has expertise in providing funding for civil disbursements in a range of areas, including medical negligence, personal injury, and professional negligence. The scheme has supported numerous cases in these areas, and has a strong track record of helping individuals access justice.
