New LGBTI legal service in Brisbane

Thursday, August 20, 2009

An LGBTI community legal service has been incorporated in Brisbane. The purpose of the service is primarily to provide assistance to LGBTI people by advice sessions on a week night by volunteer lawyers, such as me, with links to appropriate counselling.

The service will launch in the next month or so, will be entirely staffed by volunteers (as it is unfunded) and will operate initially in the offices of QAHC (Queensland Association for Healthy Communities – formerly the Queensland AIDS Council) at Newstead.

It is expected that the service will also act as an advocate for legal change to remove legal barriers faced by LGBT people.

I am hoping to support the service, which will be a welcome addition to community legal centres in Brisbane.

Surrogacy in Mexico: Important Update

In this video, I explained why Mexico has become a more attractive option for some intended parents than the United States — and why that does not mean the journey is easy or without serious legal pitfalls. As someone who has lived infertility, worked on more than 2,000 surrogacy journeys across 39 countries, and advised Australian… Read More »Surrogacy in Mexico: Important Update
