Frequently Asked Questions
What is this form for?
When you fill out this online form, you will pay your LawRight membership straight away and can make an additional donation to LawRight if you wish. It also saves your payment details into our system, so that in 12 months’ time your next membership renewal will happen automatically (but we will send you a reminder email 14 days before the next payment is taken, so that you are able to opt out).
Automatic renewal significantly reduces the administrative burden of membership renewals for LawRight and our members, which gives us more resources to use directly on providing access to justice.
When will payments be deducted?
Your first payment will be deducted immediately when you complete this form. Your next annual membership payment will be scheduled for 12 months from your first payment. At least 14 days before the payment is scheduled, you will receive an email and have the opportunity to opt out.
What if I change my mind or do not want the next payment to be deducted?
You can contact us at any time (members@lawright.org.au or (07) 3846 6317) to change your arrangement.
How much is membership?
First year – $20
2-3 years – $100
4-5 years – $175
6+ years – $280
What payment method do you accept?
You can pay by credit card (including AMEX) or direct debit. If your details change in the next 12 months and the payment doesn’t go through, we’ll contact you to update your details.
