"I was an employee struggling to manage a significant workplace issue on my own. With IR Advocates, I felt reassured I had found the right person to represent me. Their extensive experience and knowledge advocating on behalf of employees like me in relation to workplace issues, gave me the confidence to engage IR Advocates to act for me in my matter. My industrial advocate worked tirelessly providing great strategy and technical advice. IR Advocates was patient, honest, personable and compassionate."

“I cannot recommend using IR Advocates enough. They were very thorough and professional throughout the whole process. Stephen responded in a timely manner and went over and above to assist - working out hours due to the interstate time difference. The advice provided by Stephen at IR Advocates was calculated and explained in a level of detail someone like myself with no legal background could comprehend.”

“I recently had the privilege of working with Stephen and the team at IR Advocates. They provided invaluable assistance with defending a Fair Work claim brought by a former employee. Their expertise, dedication, and commitment to justice ensured that I received the compensation I deserved. I am delighted to share my positive experience and highly recommend Stephen and the team to anyone seeking advice and representation for similar employment matters.”
