To get telephone advice or information, call the LawAccess NSW legal help line on 1300 888 529 (cost of a local call from within NSW). 

If you then still need face-to-face legal advice, call your closest Legal Aid office and make an appointment to see a lawyer. Legal advice is not means tested and you do not need to apply for a grant of legal aid to get free legal advice.

Advice is usually limited to about 20 minutes.
