About this service

You can get a lawyer to represent you for a child protection matter if:

  • the Ministry of Children and Family Development (MCF), or a delegated Aboriginal agency, has taken or has threatened to take your child or children away from you, or
  • there are guardianship or custody and contact or access issues related to a child in the care of MCF (foster care)

The Parents Legal Centre (PLC) focuses on helping parents resolve their child protection matters early and collaboratively. It offers services at any stage of the child protection matter, from the first contact with the Ministry of Children and Family Development (MCF) or a delegated Aboriginal agency until it's apparent the matter can't be resolved through collaborative processes.
