182        <h3>The story of FineFixer 1.0</h3>
183        <p class="p1">The concept for FineFixer was developed by a team of three talented RMIT University students; Joshua Lee, Alexandra Laurence, and Rebecca Aiezza. They developed the idea and business case over the course of 13 weeks during the 2015 Access to Justice Through Technology Challenge, a stream of the Fastrack Innovation Program.</p>
184<p>Their solution won the Most Viable Solution Award for a web based app to help young people understand and pay their fines using a simple, quick and easy process. Enabling people to act earlier, preventing the accumulation of costs and penalties for people and freeing up valuable time for community legal centres and Victoria Legal Aid.</p>
185<p>In 2016 a project advisory group led by Moonee Valley Legal Service with representatives from RMIT, the Centre for Innovative Justice, Victoria Legal Aid, Youthlaw, Uniting Care Regen, and Mykifines.org.au commenced working with PaperGiant to turn the students&#8217; concept into the FineFixer you can use todayThe .</p>
186<p>FineFixer 1.0 project was funded by a grant from Victoria Law Foundation.</p>

197<p class="p1">PaperGiant is a research-led service and product design consultancy that specialises in health, government and social justice projects.</p>
198<p class="p1">The Moonee Valley Legal Service engaged us to help them build on the original concept produced by students at RMIT University, and bring FineFixer to life.</p>
199<p class="p1">With the original concept as a starting point, we designed, prototyped, and developed FineFixer in close consultation with the community legal sector.</p>
