Advice for employees and employers on dismissals, contracts, and workplace disputes, from a first written warning through to an Industrial Court claim.
How We Help
What to expect from Your Firm Name
Employment disputes rarely start with a lawsuit — they usually begin with a warning letter, a show-cause letter, or a difficult conversation about a contract term. We advise both employees and employers at each stage, from reviewing an employment contract to representing a party at the Industrial Court, so decisions are made with a clear understanding of the applicable law.
Frequently Asked
Common questions
- What should I do if I receive a show-cause letter?
- Respond in writing within the timeframe given, set out your version of events clearly, and seek advice before the matter progresses to a domestic inquiry or dismissal.
- How long do I have to file an unfair dismissal claim?
- A representation to the Director General of Industrial Relations must generally be made within 60 days of dismissal, so early advice matters.
