About Us

WLSV is a highly respected not for profit organisation which has been providing free legal services to women since 1982. We work with, and for women experiencing disadvantage to address legal issues arising from relationship breakdown or violence.

WLSV addresses the multiple and complex legal needs women experience violence and disadvantage face, with a priority on casework and litigation to secure positive outcomes. We deliver our legal services within a multi-disciplinary and trauma-informed practice model that incorporates social work and financial counselling to ensure wrap around support and economic security.

Our culture

Our staff are driven, collaborative, solution-focused, and incredibly passionate about why WLSV exists – to build a gender equitable country, to work alongside women experiencing disadvantage to promote their rights to live free from violence, and make informed choices about their relationships.

We work with a feminist and gendered lens, working alongside women, promoting ‘power with’ or ‘power for’ our clients, rather than being complicit in a legal system that can often maintain ‘power over’ our clients. We are woman-focused, engaging the whole person, appreciating the complexity of her situation and supporting women to address their legal, social and economic needs.

We work in partnership with staff, clients, stakeholders and partners recognising unique strengths and contributions. We deliver high quality services to our clients through a commitment to collaboration and community.

• An incredibly supportive team work environment, working alongside very passionate and highly talented professionals and support staff who strive for greatness every single day
• A strong commitment to your professional development, personal development and mental health
• A true flexible working environment
• Christmas and New Year shut-down leave
• A visible collaborative culture of support, respect, fun and laughs!
