Fitzroy Legal Service is one of the oldest community legal centres in Australia, opening in 1972. Fitzroy Legal Service provides casework to clients in our catchment area and plays a significant role in the areas of law reform and community legal education, which is closely bound up with the practice of preventative law, demystification of the law, self-help and empowerment.

Fitzroy Legal Service also has a long history of running public interest cases. The experiences from the casework practice inform the law reform and community legal education activities of the organisation.
