Employment Law
Whether you have been unfairly dismissed, underpaid, or subject to workplace harassment — or you are an employer facing a claim — Adventure Legal provides expert advice and strong representation across all employment law matters.
How We Can Help
Employment law governs the relationship between employers and employees across Australia. The Fair Work Act 2009 sets minimum standards, protects employees from adverse action, and provides pathways for resolving workplace disputes. State and territory laws add further layers of protection in some jurisdictions.
Adventure Legal acts for both employees and employers. For employees, we pursue unfair dismissal claims, general protections applications, underpayment recovery, and workplace harassment matters. For employers, we advise on compliance, respond to claims, and assist in managing performance and termination processes lawfully.
Christopher brings a practical approach to employment law, focused on achieving outcomes efficiently and cost-effectively. Many employment matters can be resolved at conciliation without the need for a formal hearing — but when advocacy is needed, Adventure Legal is ready.
- Unfair dismissal applications
- General protections (adverse action) claims
- Underpayment and wage theft recovery
- Workplace harassment and bullying
- Discrimination in the workplace
- Employment contract review and advice
- Redundancy and severance entitlements
Unfair dismissal deadline: You have only 21 days from the date of dismissal to file an unfair dismissal application. Contact us immediately if you have been dismissed.
