How It Works

Lawyer — Unfair Dismissal Solutions in Australia

WHAT ARE THE STEPS FOR UNFAIR DISMISSAL COMPENSATION?

First, let us lodge an unfair dismissal remedy application. This is often the first communication you will have with a previous employer following notice of your dismissal. It is therefore imperative you make them understand that you are serious about asserting your rights as an employee.

The application will point to relevant parts of the Fair Work Act as well as recent Commission rulings that align with your application. This is to ensure maximum impact is made on your former employer – so they understand the risks of contesting the issue further. We recommend avoiding any other contact with your previous employer.

To begin this process, simply contact 4 Unfair Dismissal. When you talk to Jamie Hawkins, he can give you a free appraisal to first determine if you have a case or not. Once you understand your position and the costs involved, you can go forward with your application. Call us today on 0419 774 330.

HOW TO LODGE AN APPLICATION FOR UNFAIR DISMISSAL

Lodging and drafting requires an experienced professional to ensure precise and relevant points of the Fair Work Act are referenced throughout. This also involves pointing to relevant case law and recent rulings that pertain to the details of your case. 4 Unfair Dismissal takes the guesswork out of this process, giving you peace of mind when you need it:

Step 1: Call 0419 774 330, send an email or use our contact form
Step 2: Jamie will assess your case & outline the details
Step 3: Our team drafts your application
Step 4: We serve the document to the employer

EMPLOYER RESPONDS TO THE APPLICATION

Step 4: The Employer sends a reply to our office
Step 5: The Fair Work Commission sets a date for teleconference

UNFAIR DISMISSAL CONCILIATION

Step 6: We advocate/mediate for you at this conference
Step 7: In most cases, an agreement is reached at this time
Step 8: The agreement is drafted & the parties sign
Step 9: You receive the amount agreed to & the matter is closed

Please note – the above nine-step process is only general advice, and each case can vary depending on the exact circumstances of your dismissal. In the unlikely event that an agreement cannot be reached between parties, the matter will then progress to a more formal hearing at the Fair Work Commission.

Once we understand your particular circumstances, we can advise you on the likelihood of your case settling or progressing to a Fair Work Commission tribunal hearing. This gives you the chance to weigh your options before paying any fees. However, over 95% of our cases settle before the need for a Fair Work Commission tribunal hearing.
