Why use us?
We have the right to attend Fair Work Commission (FWC) hearings

To attend hearings at the FWC, lawyers and paid agents require permission. The FWC uses strict criteria to decide if a representative is permitted to appear on behalf of their party. As an employer association, the Victorian Chamber has the automatic right to represent members without needing to seek permission from the FWC. We can also provide representation in circumstances where the FWC has denied a lawyer the right to appear.

Your unusual, is our usual

Internal HR teams and some legal professionals may not have the experience to defend claims effectively at a FWC hearing due to the complexity and formalities involved. Our consultants have appeared in hundreds of conferences and hearings demonstrating their expertise and knowledge.
