Perspective. Preparation. Purpose.
01 / An informed starting pointUnderstand your position.
Understand your position.
Plan the next step.
The correct approach to an employment dispute depends on the nature of the relationship, applicable service rules or contract, relevant correspondence and the forum involved. We begin by identifying these issues before discussing formal steps.
Case-specific advice
The right approach depends on your documents, circumstances and the relevant legal process. An initial enquiry does not establish a lawyer-client relationship.
