How to Contact Legal Service

The easiest way to access SUPRA’s Legal Service is to come to the SUPRA offices during drop-in, when you are able to see the solicitor without making an appointment. Students are seen by the solicitor in the order they arrive, so you may have a short wait.

Drop-in times: Legal Service drop-in is from 1-3pm on Mondays and Thursdays. Please arrive no later than 2:30pm.

The SUPRA offices are on Level 2 of the Holme Building, Camperdown campus. To get to the SUPRA offices you can enter the Holme Building via Science Rd, head through the Holme Courtyard and take the lift (next to the Courtyard Restaurant and Bar) down to Level 2. The location of the Holme Building (A09) is shown on this map of campus.

Email: Send an email to help@supra.usyd.edu.au which will be forwarded to the Legal Service. If possible, please include a telephone contact number in your email so we can get back to you. Always send us as much detail as you can when sending an enquiry.
