Held each year in May, Law Week features more than 150 law-based events in Melbourne and across regional Victoria.

The program involves over 100 organisations, who work with the Foundation to present seminars, exhibitions, lectures, Q&A sessions, court and parliament tours, and many other public events and displays designed to provide legal information at little or no cost. Law Week is the Foundation’s highest-profile community outreach program.
