Contract Review and Negotiation
While there are a range of minimum employee entitlements protected by law, your employment may also be governed by — or proposed to be governed by — a written contract. At MV Law, we can review your employment contract before you sign, helping you identify any hidden risks or unfavourable terms. We can also assist in negotiating fairer conditions or resolving disputes that arise during your employment under that agreement.
With extensive experience advising both employers and employees across employment law and workplace relations matters, we bring a unique perspective to every case. We understand how each party is likely to approach key issues and can help you anticipate and respond effectively.
Our focus is on empowering you to resolve matters at the workplace level wherever possible; while ensuring you are prepared for litigation if required. This allows you to make informed decisions and adapt your approach as circumstances evolve. We tailor our advice and advocacy to suit your individual needs and budget — giving you the confidence to act in your best interests, backed by a skilled and supportive legal team.
