It is not uncommon for disgruntled employees to commence litigation against their employer, or former employer. In addition, employers sometimes take action against former employees to enforce their rights.

We are experienced in acting in a range of employment disputes, including:

• Unfair dismissal and unlawful termination claims
• Breach of contract claims
• General protections claims
• Discrimination, harassment and bullying complaints
• Misleading and deceptive conduct claims
• Underpayment of entitlement claims
• Enforcement of post-employment restraints of trade, and confidential information and intellectual property obligations
• Work, health and safety proceedings in the form of prosecutions and coronial inquests

Benefit from our background in representing national and multinational employers in negotiations, conciliations, mediations, arbitrations, and court and tribunal hearings, and from our ability to handle cross-border disputes through our offices around the world.

Whether the claim is brought by you, the employee or their union, rely on a team that seeks to resolve it quickly and fairly with minimum disruption to your workplace and employee relationships.
