Employment Lawyers

Before contacting an employment lawyer

Say whether you are seeking help as a worker or an employer, and describe the task: advice, contract review, a workplace dispute or a response to a notice.

Prepare a useful first message

Write a brief timeline and list relevant agreements, correspondence and notices already available to you. Ask the office which materials it needs for screening and a consultation.

Questions to compare the proposed work

• Do you represent people on my side of this type of employment issue?
• Does your proposed work cover advice, negotiations, agency proceedings or litigation?
• How will we agree scope, communication and costs if the matter changes?

These are suggested discussion prompts, not a determination of your rights, deadlines or the right legal procedure. Ask the office to confirm what work it has accepted; submitting an inquiry alone does not confirm responsibility for a date on your paperwork.
