ABOUT

Inner West Tenants Advice and Advocacy Service (IWTAAS) gives free telephone advice to tenants on their rights and responsibilities. When you call our Service you may be asked to leave a voicemail identifying your name, suburb, phone number, whether your matter is urgent or not and short description of the issue. We try to return all calls within 24-72 hours. Alternatively, on our website you can submit an online enquiry and we will get in contact. When we call, it will be from a private number.

Our services are available to renters in the local government areas of Ashfield, Burwood, Canada Bay, Marrickville, and Strathfield. Please note that we do not give advice to landlords.

IWTAAS also provides legal education sessions and lobbies for law reform to help tenants. In particular we want greater protection for people who live as boarders or lodgers, who are some of our communities' most vulnerable people.

IWTAAS is a program of Marrickville Legal Centre.

We encourage you to contact us via our webform at mlc.org.au.

Over 100 Tenant Advocates from across NSW gathered to learn and connect.
