Everyday Justice is a national, charitable community legal service owned by Mills Oakley that provides low-cost legal help to people experiencing everyday legal issues, who cannot afford to engage a private lawyer. Everyday Justice works in collaboration with Mills Oakley lawyers to provide substantially reduced fee legal services to eligible clients. Seperate to Everyday Justice, Mills Oakley has a National Pro Bono Legal Program.
Everyday Justice has three main purposes:
We provide low-cost legal assistance to people and organisations who cannot access means-tested Legal Aid services or afford a private lawyer without incurring substantial financial hardship. More information on what we can help with is here.
We act on a low fee basis in public interest law matters involving issues such as wills and estates, employment, social or public welfare, intervention orders, fines & infringements, debt and victims of crime.
In collaboration with our university partners, we advance education by creating a holistic learning enviroment for law students who are interested in gaining legal experience in social justice and public interest matters.
