Our business has been a customer of Aitken legal for almost 10 years, and team has provided exceptional high-quality advice and support in dealing with complex human resource, industrial, Workcover and other change management issues for our executive and senior manager team. Although we have access to a general external general human resource advice line, we have found the specific advice around dealing with very sensitive issues of absolutely necessity for us and huge benefit to our business. This advice and support have been expertly provided in a timely manner. The post Covid world of industrial relations has resulted in us using the team at Aitken legal more than anticipated, however each time the support is given it has grown the confidence within our management team in dealing with complaints, claims, and challenges to management decisions.

Originally our contact was with Lisa Aitken but since 2022 our work has almost exclusively been with Hamish Proctor who has provided options for us to consider and supported us with written submissions that have expertly summarised our position and the basis for our actions. Hamish is clear and reasoned in giving his advice and this is always delivered with empathy for the issues our managers face, sometimes with a fair degree of humour as well (which often breaks the tension in the decision-making process). We highly recommend the services at Aitken legal, considered by many of us to the best in Australia.
