The Inner City Legal Centre (ICLC) is a not-for-profit community legal centre based in Kings Cross, Sydney, Australia. It provides free legal advice and representation to residents who cannot afford private legal services, particularly those living in Sydney's inner city and eastern suburbs. The organisation operates with a strong commitment to social justice and community support, focusing on vulnerable and marginalised groups.
Overview
ICLC offers comprehensive generalist legal services within its local catchment area, including the City of Sydney and the Eastern Suburbs. In addition to general legal advice, the centre delivers specialised legal support across New South Wales in key areas, including:
- Legal services for the LGBQTI+ community
- Support for trans and gender diverse individuals
- Assistance for sex workers
- Employment law advice
These specialised services highlight ICLC's dedication to addressing the unique legal challenges faced by these communities, often underserved by mainstream legal resources.
Mission and Values
The Inner City Legal Centre is dedicated to offering accessible and equitable legal assistance, recognising the importance of cultural sensitivity and inclusiveness. It acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of the lands in New South Wales, particularly the Gadigal people of the Eora Nation, and commits to working towards justice and reconciliation with First Nations peoples.
Services
ICLC's range of legal services includes:
- Free legal advice and representation in civil law matters
- Targeted programs to support domestic violence victims within the LGBTQI+ community
- Legal advocacy for trans and gender diverse people
- Legal assistance for sex workers concerning issues like discrimination and employment rights
- Employment rights advice and support delivered collaboratively with other community legal centres
These services are available through a self-referral system, and interpreter services are provided to support clients with diverse linguistic backgrounds. The centre is accessible, offering disability access facilities.
Organisational Structure and Partnerships
As a community-based organisation, ICLC operates under the wider umbrella of the National Association of Community Legal Centres. It collaborates with other legal centres such as Redfern Legal Centre and Kingsford Legal Centre to provide specialist employment law services on a state-wide basis.
Volunteering opportunities, including roles for volunteer solicitors, students, and participants in practical legal training schemes, are available to support the centre's work and community engagement.
Location and Operation
ICLC is located in the basement of the Kings Cross Library at Potts Point, New South Wales. It operates Monday to Friday from 9 am to 5 pm, closing for lunch between 1 pm and 2 pm.
The centre plays a vital role in Sydney's community by ensuring legal support is accessible to those most in need, reflecting a profound commitment to social inclusion, justice, and advocacy for rights across diverse communities.

Today is IDAHOBIT, International Day Against LGBTQIA+ Discrimination. It marks the anniversary of homosexuality being removed from the international classification of diseases. Despite progress over the last decade within Australia, Queer rights are still under threat. People are less likely to be out at work now than they were in 2025 - and over a third of LGBTQIA+ individuals have experienced abuse in the last 12 months. We must continue to fight for the rights of our Queer peers - and to call out bigotry when we see it. If you, or somebody you know, has faced workplace discrimination - contact the ICLC for free legal advice. (fb)
