In the community
At Barry.Nilsson., we recognise that our skills and expertise can be of benefit to the greater community and believe that through a resolved commitment we can put these skills to use.
One of the ways we do this is through our membership of the Queensland Law Society's Pro Bono Scheme. This scheme is managed by QPILCH which distributes referrals for potential pro bono matters in areas that we are able to provide services. If you are looking for pro bono services, please contact QPILCH.
We also have a long standing commitment to supporting the Queensland Institute of Medical Research. For the last 10 years, the Queensland Institute of Medical Research has been the major recipient of our corporate donations, with our preferred project being melanoma cancer research. All team members at Barry.Nilsson. regularly contribute to fundraising activities.
Barry.Nilsson. Lawyers has recently become involved with the Make a Meal program through Ronald McDonald Houses. Teams of Barry.Nilsson. staff participate once every four weeks by cooking a two course meal for the House's residents. The aim of the Make a Meal program is for individuals and companies to have the opportunity to provide a healthy and tasty meal for the outstation families staying in the House.

A number of our team members are also supporters of BLEATS (Brisbane Lawyers Educating and Advocating for Tougher Sentences), which is a group of Brisbane lawyers campaigning for animal justice. Barry.Nilsson. Lawyers are also proud to be volunteers at the Caxton Legal Clinic, the Women's Legal Service and the LGBTI Legal Service.
