PLS lawyers can generally only provide advice and take instructions directly from people in prison.
We know how hard it can be for people in prison to contact us. For this reason, we offer a call back service for friends and family of people in prison.
Our online enquiry form is currently closed and will reopen on Monday 13 January 2025.
PLS operates a free telephone advice line from prison.
The prison telephone advice line runs as follows:
TOWNSVILLE, LOTUS GLEN AND CAPRICORNIA CORRECTIONAL CENTRES
ALL OTHER CORRECTIONAL CENTRES
People in prison can call PLS using the Arunta Prisoner Telephone System (PTS) by:
People who have difficulties contacting us through the PTS can try asking the following people to contact PLS on their behalf:
correctional officer in their unit
correctional centre counsellor or cultural liaison officer
family member or friend (who can lodge an online enquiry)
Please note that this phone number is only used for administration. PLS lawyers are generally not available on the administration line. If you would like to be contacted by a lawyer, please complete the online enquiry form to the right.
