When workplace issues escalate and need resolution

Labour, human rights and employment laws are constantly changing. These changes can affect not just how we work but the social fabric of where we work as well. Challenges in employment relationships can be complicated to navigate and difficult to resolve. We’ve got a lawyer for that.

There are also limited circumstances in which we may assist you on a contingency basis.
