District Law Associations

The Queensland Law Society represents the interests of the most geographically widespread legal profession in Australia. Solicitors practising in Far North Queensland are further from Brisbane than people living in Melbourne.

The vastness of Queensland has nurtured the growth and strength of 19 district law associations which have the opportunity to communicate as often and as closely with QLS as their Brisbane-based colleagues.

The enthusiastic involvement of regional solicitors in a wide range of local community activities is of enormous importance in QLS's efforts to educate and inform the community about their rights and responsibilities under the law.
