The Disability Advocacy service is committed to improving the lives and opportunities for people with disability. The service recognises that there is a gap between people living with disability in the Pilbara, and the services available to them for advocacy, advice and support.
The service has a solicitor dedicated to Disability Advocacy. The advocate can assist with any legal issues you, or your carer might be facing, no matter how big or small, such as:
- Discrimination claims
- Preparing or appealing a Disability Support Pension
- Preparing or appealing a Carer Allowance claim
- Appointing a Power of Attorney, Guardian to make decisions for you
- Making an advanced health directive
- Eligibility for government benefits
- Eligibility for NDIS
- Elder abuse
