Moreland Community Legal Centre Inc
About Us
The Moreland Community Legal Centre Inc has most recently changed its name from the former 'Coburg Brunswick Community Legal and Financial Counselling Centre Inc'. We have also moved premises.
We are now located at 17 Sydney Road, Coburg, just before Moreland Road, Coburg. We provide free and confidential legal advice.
The Moreland Community Legal Centre stills provide the same services, and we hope the name change and location will enable more clients to access our centre and promote the fact the centre's catchment area is available to people, living, working or studying within the City of Moreland Municipality. Any enquiries, please call our number on 9383 2588
We are located 200 metres from Moreland Train Station on the Upfield Train Line.
