Court Support

We will contact you to advise what will happen at court, support you to access free legal advice to ensure that your voice is heard and work with you to get an order that is best for your situation.
Before Court:
We will make sure you have a safe space to sit at court and help you. We will keep you informed about the progress of your case, including any upcoming dates that you need to attend court.
At Court:
We may refer you to other services that can help you with things such as safe housing, income support, childrens needs, family law and counselling. We will provide you with information about how to keep yourself and your children safe, and what to do if the abuse or control continues.
After Court:

Local Coordination Point

The Local Coordination Point is a coordinated service delivery model for domestic violence victims across NSW. When you report domestic and family violence to the police, an automatic referral is sent to our Local Coordination Point. We will call you within 1 business day and work with you to help you stay safe. We will:
Assess your risk and needs
Work with you to develop a safety plan
Coordinate a range of services to support you
Refer your case to a Safety Action Meeting if you are deemed to be at serious threat of injury or death due to domestic violence
