What we do

Refugee & Asylum Seeker Assistance

For information about JusticeNet's response to the current crisis in Afghanistan, click here.

JusticeNet's Pro Bono Connect coordinates pro bono (free) legal help for refugees and asylum seekers who are applying for judicial review.

How we can help

We will obtain a legal opinion about an applicant's situation and, where there is sufficient legal merit, we will endeavour to refer applicants for representation in the Federal Circuit Court or Federal Court.

Am I eligible?

If you, or your client, has received an adverse decision from the Administrative Appeals Tribunal or the Immigration Assessment Authority you can make an application to JusticeNet.

How do I apply?

JusticeNet has an online application form for Refugee and Asylum Seeker assistance.
