Employment Contracts – Tailoring Contracts for Business Success
Our Employment Lawyers specialise in employment contracts and can draft, review and negotiate all types of employment contracts. A well-drafted employment contract not only serves as a legal document that clearly outlines the terms and conditions of employment, it also manages potential risks, and supports the overall success and sustainability of a business.

Policies, Agreements & Dispute Resolution – Helping Mitigate Risk & Minimise Conflict

Strategic Guidance & Cost-Effective Solutions
Coombe Lawyers Adelaide is known for offering commercially sensible legal advice and provides strategic guidance on the best course of action and/or settlement options to effectively resolve employment disputes. We use alternative dispute resolution methods such as mediation and negotiation to prevent disputes from escalating into costly legal proceedings. However, where litigation is necessary, our Lawyers will vigorously pursue your best interests.
Business Restructuring – Legal Guidance for Business Transitions & Restructuring
Partnering with an experienced Employment Lawyer is essential if your business is looking to restructure, downsize, or relocate. Laws concerning redundancies and business restructuring require expert legal guidance, and our Employment Lawyers can assist your business with this complex process.
Redundancy Strategies for Positive Employee Relations
Our Employment Lawyers offer specialist advice to ensure any proposed redundancies adhere to legal requirements. We advise on how to structure redundancy packages, advise on the legalities of changing job roles and descriptions, and advise employers about any potential issues. Whilst business restructuring can be challenging, our Lawyers can work with you to negotiate with employees and mitigate the risk of disputes and legal mistakes.

Employment Lawyer for Employees
Every individual has the right to experience a safe and secure work environment, which is why there are laws to ensure that you receive fair treatment from the people you work for and with. Whether you have been unfairly dismissed, underpaid or are being pressured into signing a new work contract, our Employment Lawyers for employees are here to help.
Unfair Dismissal Lawyers
Our Employment Lawyers are experts in unfair dismissal. Whether you are employed full-time, part-time or as an apprentice, your employer cannot dismiss you without a valid reason and lawful process. If you feel you have been unfairly dismissed or are facing unjustified allegations of misconduct or poor performance, our Workplace Lawyers are here to help with expert advice and a free initial telephone consultation.
Time Is Critical When Dealing With Unfair Dismissal
Seeking legal advice and taking immediate action is essential if you feel you have been unfairly dismissed. In South Australia, employees only have 21 days from dismissal to lodge a Claim with the Fair Work Commission or the South Australian Employment Tribunal. If you want to understand your rights or see if you have a valid Claim, then don’t delay, call for a free initial consultation and check out our FAQs section below.
