The Law Society of South Australia provides a number of legal services to the community.
Referral Service
The Law Society provides a referral service for members of the public who need legal advice or help. Referrals can be provided according to specific areas of law (such as family law, personal injuries, wills and estates), geographic location, language and if necessary, home/hospital visits.
After Hours Legal Advice - Legal Advisory Service
An after hours advisory service is provided at the Law Society's office in Adelaide, at 178 North Terrace. The service is staffed by volunteer lawyers who provide preliminary advice and, if necessary, refer clients to either a legal aid agency or a private lawyer. A fee of $35 (or $25 concession) is charged (as at January 2025).
Single 20-minute interviews are available by appointment between 5:30pm to 7:00pm on Mondays. Call the Law Society on (08) 8229 0200 to make an appointment.
