Important update

Northern Rivers Community Legal Centre is no longer seeing clients face to face during the COVID-19 pandemic

We are taking a pro-active approach to the potential spread of the COVID-19 virus. We are still providing advice by phone. If you require Legal, Tenancy or Domestic Violence assistance please call:

Legal advice: (02) 6621 1000

Tenancy advice: (02) 6621 1022

Domestic Violence service: (02) 6621 1044

Thank you for your understanding, we ask you to please be patient and kind to yourself and others during this time. 

Lost your job because of COVID-19?

Employees have only 21 days to lodge an application for unfair dismissal after they are dismissed.  If you are stood down without pay unlawfully you will be entitled to unpaid wages.  Everyone’s circumstances are different so it’s worth getting some free legal advice.  Contact NRCLC on 6621 1000 or 1800 689 889 to book an appointment.
