The organizations Aboriginal Legal Service were founded by Aborigines in the late 1960s. They were either lawyers or personalities interested in problem solving for Aboriginal people who founded the Aboriginal Legal Services.
These new organizations were concerned with legal, social and family problems that Aborigines had encountered. They provided support for precaution and helped conflicts with applicable laws.
The first municipal Aboriginal Legal Service was established in Australia in 1971 in Redfern, a district of Sydney. One of the founders was Paul Coe, a lawyer, and Gary Foley, a writer and promoted historian. Other organizations were established in all the federal states of Australia. In addition to the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Legal Services (ATSILS), there are the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Women's Legal Services, Family Violence Prevention Legal Services (FVPLS), Community Legal (Regional legal aid) and the Legal Aid Commission (Legal Aid Commission).
According to the Australian Bureau of Statistics, there were eight such legal services and nine Aboriginal Legal Services at the end of June 2008, and there are regional aid centers in Australia and Tasmania in 179 municipalities. The 196 organizations employed 5,108 people in June 2008, including 1,713 lawyers admitted to higher and lower courts. The income of the employees was $ 733.2 million from 2007 to 2008.
