Advice To Employers

Acting for employers who find the challenge of dealing with the raft of employee rights under the Fair Work Act, McDonald Murholme provides a fast, effective and affordable legal service that broad-based firms often do not.

Advice To Employers

It is wise to view the Fair Work Act as a regulatory tool similar to others with which a business must comply (ASIC and tax laws). Troublesome employees should not be allowed to use the Fair Work Act to harm a business or create a toxic workplace.

The Fair Work Act is complex, and we provide advice to employers in dealing with claims made under this Act. McDonald Murholme knows what it takes to resolve issues, having negotiated thousands of outcomes. A Deed of Release resolving a dispute should always be possible.

      “My need for support from McDonald Murholme came at a time when I was also focussing on a couple of other personal issues - both significant but unrelated. The support I received from Alan, Stephanie and the team was incredible - I felt supported at every step of the process and was 100% confident that the matter was being dealt with effectively whilst I addressed other things. Most importantly, however, the team were easy to talk to and kept me fully up to date with progress. Hopefully I'll not have a need to use them again but, if I do, I absolutely would NOT hesitate! Last thing for me to say - THANK YOU McDonald Murholme!”
