It's what we stand for
Over the past 40 years (1979 – 2019) Legal Aid and its staff have made an incredible contribution to the administration of justice and the lives of the most vulnerable people in NSW.
We are celebrating the diversity and depth of talent within our organisation through a series of staff video interview, podcasts and staff profiles.
Video series: What do you stand for?
| Part 1 | |
| In this episode of What do you stand for? we ask our lawyers 'Are Legal Aid lawyers real lawyers?' and 'As a Legal Aid lawyer, what do you stand for?' | |
| Part 2 | |
| In this episode of What do you stand for? we ask our lawyers 'Why do disadvantaged groups get their own lawyers?' | |
| Part 3 | |
| In this episode of What do you stand for? we asked our lawyers why they choose to work at Legal Aid NSW rather than a private firm, and 'have you ever represented someone in court when you knew in your heart they were guilty?' | |
