What is an employment lawyer?

There is a diverse range of situations where you will need to hire a lawyer with expertise in employment law. These include the formation and review of employment agreements, the recovery of unpaid work and benefits, resolution of workplace disputes and compliance with workplace regulations.

Why do I need to hire an employment lawyer?
Employment law is a complex area. As an employer you may be unaware of your legal rights and unable to properly handle workplace disputes. If you are an employee, you will want to know your role and status within the workplace.
A problem that most businesses face is not having the right legal documents in place to handle these legal situations. Without the correct legal documents, an employer may take unlawful action and an employee may be misclassified as an independent contractor. This can result in a long and costly litigation process. It is necessary to engage with an employment lawyer to clarify your rights, responsibilities and obligations.

Hassle free creation of a loan document
We needed to create a loan contract to document the short term loan of money to a friend. This was so much easier than i had thought and now i feel much more secure lending the money.
Quick and simple
Great option for starting out, to have piece of mind before i can afford to engage a legal service
Excellent
Very easy to create, will be using this every time
Very responsive
My lawyer has been excellent throughout the trademark process. They explained everything as we went along and they were very responsive to all of my additional questions. I highly recommend their service
Franchise document review
They delivered what was required my lawyer was easy to deal with with a pleasant phone manner. They pointed out most things that i had already interpreted correctly but was good to get an experts opinion, they did also point out a few things that i didn't comprehend ..All in all was good, i decided not proceed further with the franchise purchase.
