Many problems in our lives can have legal answers

There are many different parts to the legal system. It is large and it can be complex, but there is help to find your way.

Victorian Law Week is an opportunity to identify where the law can help you navigate the legal system, legal processes, and what to do next.

There’s a range of events to help you understand the law, whether it’s:

a webinar on what happens when you make a complaint to the independent anti-corruption agency (IBAC)
an in-person session to learn about the court hierarchy in Victoria and the role of police
a legal service pop-up in Moonee Valley
