Southern Aboriginal Corporation
Family Violence
Prevention Legal
Service
We provide free legal assistance and non-legal support to Aboriginal people experiencing, or at risk of, family and domestic violence across the Great Southern, South West and Wheatbelt regions.
What we do
Our team of lawyers, counsellors and community support officers support clients to navigate the legal system with the following matters:
​
-
Care and protection
-
Family law
-
Criminal injuries
-
Family Violence Restraining Orders (FVROs).
​
Throughout the legal process, we walk alongside clients and can provide intensive case management to ensure their holistic needs are met.
Our team also provides early intervention and prevention support as well as healing services to ensure the emotional and physical safety and wellbeing of clients.
​
We are here to listen and help:
​
-
By providing a first point of contact for those facing legal or quasi-legal issues. Sometimes legal issues can be complicated and confusing, and it means a lot to people to be able to give us a call and then hang up the phone with a better understanding of what is going on and what they can do about it.
-
By providing a culturally safe and trauma informed approach tailored to meet the complex needs of Aboriginal people.
-
Support your rights with ‘no shame’ or judgement.​
