Australian Justices of the Peace

Updated on 13/07/08
From time to time you will need the assistance of an Australian Justice of the Peace (JP). Each state and territory has their own register and regulations concerning JPs. You can usually find them in banks, building societies, pharmacies, shopping centre management offices and at your local courthouse.
Queensland even has a program that provides volunteer programs in shopping centres from Townsville to the Gold Coast. Visit Qld JPs in the Community.
