About Barefoot Law - Mullumbimby Legal Clinic Barefoot Law is not a service provided by the Mullumbimby & District Neighbourhood Centre, however you can call us to Book an Appointment with them. Why Barefoot Law? Legal advice should be a right, not a privilege. But it’s too expensive for many people and legal aid and community legal centres are very limited or far away. Our community has many problems that could use legal advice but people often don’t get the help they need. Mainly because of the cost. It might be a contract you need or a claim against your employer. Maybe you want to contest a driving charge or there’s a will you keep forgetting to do. Added up, it’s a bit like having untreated illness across the community. We should fix that. What is Barefoot Law? Barefoot Law aims to offer practical low-cost advice to individuals and families, community organisations and small businesses. We see ourselves as plying a trade – we’re making new shelves for your kitchen, putting in a bathroom or building a studio ‘out the back’. Only this is a law firm. A very small one! Barefoot Law is designed to help you solve a problem or make a decision. We will be open one day a week, like a clinic. We will aim to empower you – whether that means creating a document or helping you navigate a bureaucracy. If you need a specialist we will find you one. We have a good network […]
