PACER Referrals

In 2019, IMCL has developed a partnership with the Inner-West Police and Clinician Early Response (PACER).

Through this partnership, we offer free legal information and assistance for individuals coming into contact with Inner-West PACER.

Online referrals can be made via the following form. We will respond to all enquiries within 24 hours (Mon-Fri).  

Phone referrals can be made by contacting the PACER intake line (03) 9012 8586
