Mental health conditions connected to your defence service may be eligible for treatment and compensation under Australian veterans’ law.

PTSD, depression, anxiety and other psychological conditions do not necessarily need to have been diagnosed while you were serving. What matters is establishing the condition and its connection to your defence service.

From 1 July 2026, all new DVA rehabilitation and compensation claims are determined under the improved Military Rehabilitation and Compensation Act 2004 (MRCA).

If you’re unsure about your entitlements or need support navigating a DVA claim, getting advice early can help you understand your options.

Operational Legal Australia supports veterans with DVA mental health and psychological injury claims.

CSC is one of the most misunderstood entitlements in the veteran community. Many veterans don’t know it exists alongside DVA. Others were never medically discharged when they should have been. Some under-report their conditions and receive a lower classification for life.

Getting a CSC claim right from the start makes a real difference to the outcome.

Operational Legal Australia assists veterans in understanding their CSC entitlements and preparing claims properly.

Most people who are unfairly dismissed don’t realise how short the window to act actually is.

Twenty-one calendar days from the date of dismissal. After that, extensions are granted only in exceptional circumstances. If something about the way you were let go doesn’t feel right, don’t wait.

Operational Legal Australia helps employees understand their rights and options under the Fair Work Act.

An AVO is not a criminal charge and getting one made against you does not mean you have a criminal record. But breaching one is a different story entirely.

Understanding the difference between an ADVO and an APVO, and knowing what an order actually restricts, can matter significantly depending on which side of one you’re on.

Operational Legal Australia helps people navigate AVO matters in NSW.

Today, we recognise the service, sacrifice and mateship of Australia’s Vietnam veterans.

Their contribution remains an enduring part of our nation’s history, and their legacy continues to be acknowledged by generations today.

To the veterans in our community today, thank you. Lest we forget.

Most people wait until something goes wrong before they call a lawyer. But legal advice is just as useful before a problem gets serious, whether you’re reading a document, navigating a process or unsure about your rights. Getting advice early doesn’t mean things are bad. It just means you’re informed.

Operational Legal Australia helps everyday Australians understand their options at every stage.

Accountability is not just about individual actions. It is about the systems, culture and leadership that either allow harm to occur or prevent it.

The Independent Inquiry into Military Sexual Violence is an opportunity to examine all of this and drive real, lasting change across Defence.

Operational Legal Australia supports current and former Defence members in understanding their legal options throughout this process.
