Specialist Family Violence Court Report
The increased cooperation between BGCLS, the Specialist Family Violence Court and Victoria Legal Aid has continued as the Specialist Family Violence Court (SFVC) has moved into its third year of operation.
Pro-active referrals and bookings of advice consults with clients prior to family violence court hearings has remained an important part of the service and clients have continued to give positive feedback on this process.
Whilst we remained working remotely in the SFVC for most of the financial year, service delivery finally returned to in person in March. The family violence team has also continued to assist clients impacted by family violence in a range of legal areas beyond family violence, working towards addressing other legal issues identified during the family violence court process.
