Public Law & Judicial Review lawyers in Australia

Public law lawyers challenge unlawful decisions by government and public bodies through judicial review, and advise on human rights, community care, and actions against public authorities. Judicial review has very short deadlines, often measured in weeks, so early advice is essential. A short consultation confirms whether you have grounds and how quickly you must act.

Australia is a common law country where solicitors and barristers are admitted in a state or territory. Matters are heard in state and territory courts, the Federal Court, the Family Court and the High Court of Australia.

Frequently asked questions

What is judicial review?+

Judicial review is a way of challenging the lawfulness of a decision, action, or failure to act by a public body. It focuses on how the decision was made rather than simply whether you disagree with it. A lawyer can assess whether you have grounds.

How quickly do I need to act?+

Very quickly. Judicial review claims must usually be brought promptly and, in most cases, within three months of the decision, and sometimes sooner. Delay can be fatal to a claim, so take advice as soon as possible.

Can I get legal aid for public law?+

Some public law and human rights matters qualify for legal aid depending on the issue and your means. A lawyer can tell you quickly whether funding is available for your case.

Not sure which lawyer you need?

Answer a few questions and we will map your situation and suggest next steps.
