What should I do if my employer isn’t paying my entitlements?

Can I negotiate the terms of my employment contract?

What are my options if I’ve been made redundant?
Redundancy must comply with fair work regulations. If you believe your redundancy was unfair or unlawful, you may be entitled to compensation. Our employment lawyers can help you review the circumstances and explore your legal options.
Can my employer change my role without my consent?
Your employer generally cannot make significant changes to your role, duties, or working conditions without your agreement, unless allowed under your employment contract. If this has happened to you, our Melbourne employment lawyers can help you determine whether your rights have been breached and what steps to take.
What should I do if I’ve been accused of workplace misconduct?
If you’re facing allegations of workplace misconduct, it’s important to seek legal advice before responding or attending disciplinary meetings. Our experienced employment lawyers can guide you through the process, ensuring your side of the story is heard and your rights are protected.
Do I have rights as a casual employee?
Yes, casual employees in Australia have specific rights, including entitlements to certain types of leave and protection against unfair dismissal under certain conditions. Our Melbourne lawyers can help you understand your rights as a casual employee and provide support if they’ve been violated.

Testimonials
What our clients are saying
Pentana Stanton have been my solicitors for both parenting and property settlement matters. Veronica’s wealth of experience was evident in her well-balanced advice and her unwavering commitment to looking after my best interests as a client.
Despite being based in the UK, the time difference never posed an issue—Veronica went out of her way to ensure I had the support I needed, whenever I needed it. This past year has been one of the most stressful of my life due to ongoing legal issues, but having Veronica and her team fighting in my corner was incredibly reassuring.
I cannot recommend Pentana Stanton highly enough.
