    LawCare Counselling Service

    The Society recognises that lawyers (like employees in several other professions) often work under enormous pressure, so it has been a priority of the Society to make a LawCare counselling program available to members.

    The counselling service, provided through Employee Assistance Service Australia (EASA), is confidential, free and available to Society members and their immediate family.

    If you are experiencing workplace, personal or emotional issues which are affecting your work or personal life, please call LawCare via the Employee Assistance Program on 1800 193 123 (NT only) to make an appointment.

    When booking an appointment, please tell the operator you are a Law Society NT member.
