Legal assistant/Advocate/Writer/Admin worker (AUSTRALIA ONLY)

ADVANCED SKILLS NEEDED **Introduction / Overview** I need someone to help produce professional standard documents. I will provide the background information and content, and you will be responsible for preparing the documents. We can work together to decide the format and layout. Other desirable attributes I am look for include initiative, enthusiasm, compassion, trustworthiness, and reliability. The job would suit someone with an interest in any of the following areas: the law and court system, social justice, mental health, child welfare, human rights, discrimination, the legal system and/or government misconduct. **** You can work remotely from anywhere in Australia so do not need to live in Victoria.. The person must be experienced and have superior communication skills, both verbally and in writing. They will also need sound comprehension skills as the role involves legal terms, principles, processes, and legislation. You will not need to understand everything you are writing about but it would be useful if you could gain a basic understanding of some of the information. To the reader or listener, it may sound like the delusional story of a paranoid madwoman, but in this case the truth really is stranger and more horrendous than fiction. I have a support worker who can verify that what I claim has happened did occur and continues. It is essential you can maintain high levels of confidentiality due to the unusually sensitive and private nature of the information you will be seeing and working with. You do not need to be identified in any of the correspondence and I can guarantee total anonymity. I have spoken to an award-winning journalist and he is interested in covering our story. I need to provide him with a version of our story that shapes what is a very messy, complex, and lengthy (2+ years) history into a concise summary of main points. **Details about the role** The main priority is preparing several professional quality letters/emails that will be sent to high ranking legal and government officials. Secondly, I need help to produce two versions of the chronology of events. This includes a long, detailed history as well as a concise overview of main points that can be used as a media release or email attachment. **Background /About us** My son and I have been involved in a long, ongoing, and nightmare saga that most people would find hard to believe. I am a NDIS participant with complex mental health problems (no psychotic conditions or symptoms). My 16yo son is also a participant. He has an exceptionally high level of functional impairment due to severe autism, severe to profound intellectual disability, and being non-verbal. The vital work you do will help both me and my son to move forward. I have been paralysed by trauma and despair for a long time. I know what I need to write, and have the skills, but cannot complete the tasks I need to do because anxiety and distress overwhelm me. I have a social work qualification and over the past few years have spent countless hours doing research regarding many intertwined and complex areas relevant to our story.
