Protection Visas: Seeking Safety in Australia

Australia offers protection and humanitarian visa options for individuals fleeing persecution, serious harm, or displacement. At McLean Legal, we are committed to helping people access safety and security through the appropriate legal pathways.


Whether you are already in Australia or applying from overseas, we provide compassionate, strategic support to guide you through this complex and sensitive process.

Two Pathways. One Goal: Your Safety

Onshore Protection Visas

  If you are already in Australia and fear returning to your home country due to persecution, serious harm, or human rights violations, you may be eligible to apply for a Protection visa (subclass 866).


We help you prepare a strong application supported by detailed evidence and legal submissions. We also represent clients in complex protection matters, including those involving character concerns, previous visa refusals, or fast-track processing. If your application is refused, we can assist with merits review and judicial review options.

Offshore Humanitarian Visas

  For individuals outside Australia facing persecution or displacement, we assist with Refugee and Humanitarian (subclass 200–204) visas and the Global Special Humanitarian visa (subclass 202).


We work with sponsors and community organisations to prepare compelling applications that meet the strict criteria of Australia’s offshore humanitarian program. 


We ensure that your claims are clearly presented and supported by credible evidence, increasing your chances of a successful outcome.
