  2. Legal inquiries to PILCH (Vic) from NFPs The PilchConnect service receives approx. 800-1000 calls from NFPs each year. Calls are initially answered by volunteers and then assessed by PilchConnect lawyers and referred to the most appropriate legal service. NFPs can access legal information, factsheets and practical resources via website, and register to receive monthly legal update e-bulletin. (here) NFPs can attend monthly legal seminars on common legal issues, to build legal knowledge and capacity within the NFP sector. PilchConnect uses inquiry, advice and casework data to: (i) develop further general legal information factsheets for website to benefit all NFPs; (ii) inform policy and law reform submissions advocating for simpler, smarter regulation to help the entire Victorian NFP sector. Eligible NFPs (with quick legal inquiries that can easily be answered over the phone) receive legal advice from PilchConnect lawyers. NFPs with more complex legal issues (that cannot be resolved via website, seminars or phone advice) and that meet public interest referral guidelines, will be matched with law firm for pro bono (free) legal assistance.
