About Us

The Law and Advocacy Centre for Women (LACW) is a new kind of legal practice for women. LACW combines excellence in legal advice and representation for women, with a commitment to holistic and preventative case management and engagement with therapeutic services. LACW acknowledges that it operates on Aboriginal country and pays our respects to the traditional owners and their elders past and present, in particular, the Wurundjeri people of the Kulin nations. We recognise that the needs of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women, in particular those with experience of the criminal justice system, are complex and require specialist knowledge.
