(03) 9650 4555 Established 30 years ago, we have the highest expertise and experience in employment law for employees in Victoria. Many of our clients are not in the habit of engaging lawyers but there can be serious consequences of an employment dispute on an employer or employee.
For an employee, loss of income, reputation, health, and time required to find another job can be mitigated by our legal advice.
For an employer, early advice about the fairest and best way to manage a difficult employee can save costs and inconvenience in the longer run.
As pioneers of employment law, we are serious about its advancement, particularly when human resources are often the main asset of the company. We employ a large number of research assistants to support our many lawyers to deliver a modern, fast, efficient and affordable legal service. From beginning to end, that service is very personal.
We do not use an online booking service, but invite you to speak to a dedicated new enquiries officer to listen to your enquiry and put you on the correct pathway whether you are an employee or an employer. We publish employment law online to provide free information about key issues.
Call 9650 4555 or you can make an online enquiry expecting a prompt call in reply.
