25.01.2022 The Easter Bunny made a suprise visit to our offices today so we did what any law firm would do: put her straight to work! Happy Easter everyone.

25.01.2022 FWO commercial lawyer Tony McMinn has put together this helpful summary of how the Leasing Code of Conduct applies to commercial and retail landlords and tenants!

24.01.2022 Thanks to C.ex and Papaveros for being the perfect venue for our lunch today. Pizzas to die for!

23.01.2022 Happy Birthday to FWO Principal Chris O'Brien, who turned the big 60 today!

21.01.2022 How would you feel if you discovered 10 years down the track that you had been paying half your workforce under an agreement that didn't actually apply to them?

21.01.2022 FWO Principal Jay Clowes will be on hand as one of the Rotary volunteers at tomorrow's event, so why not head on down to Pacific Bay Resort and see what solicitors get up to in their time off? Tickets will be available at the door and all profits go to charity!

21.01.2022 FWO's employment lawyer Jay Clowes recently posted an article answering some common employer questions relating to Covid-19. We thought we'd share it here too.

19.01.2022 It's common for people to enter into verbal agreements with family members, but it's also dangerous. Here's a good example of why.

18.01.2022 Thanks to some very generous donors (both within the firm and outside it)) FWO principal Jay Clowes has raised over $1,750 for mens health this Movember. If you'd like to help him crack the $2,000 mark, the donation link is in the comments.

17.01.2022 FWO principal Jay Clowes has bitten the bullet this year and will - in his words - be "sacrificing his face to help make a difference to men's health". If you'd like to help Jay in his quest, donations can be made at his Movember page.

17.01.2022 Have you ever wondered whether the law considers a sperm donor a parent? Check our Marius' article in the comments to find out.

16.01.2022 Employers with casual workforces should take the time to read Jay Clowes' article on the recent Workpac v Rossato decision. Getting this wrong could expose you to having to pay both casual loading and annual leave.

16.01.2022 The NSW Supreme Court recently found that a disputed will was valid largely because an experienced solicitor was involved in its preparation. See Jay's article in the comments to find out more.

15.01.2022 We've all heard stories about disputes over wills. But what if everyone agrees a will is not valid. Can a court ignore it?

14.01.2022 Kudos to FWO principal Jay Clowes, who recently racked up his 50th blood donation. If you prick us, do we not bleed?

13.01.2022 The Fair Work Commission has handed down a decision that likely left both sides unhappy. Find out more in the comments

13.01.2022 On International Women's Day, we'd like to express our thanks and pride in all the amazing women who make our firm what it is.

10.01.2022 The High Court is today hearing an appeal about whether employers can fire employees for comments they make on social media in their own time. The appeal concerns an employee who ran an anonymous twitter account that was frequently critical of her government employer, but the court's comments could have implications for all employers. We'll keep you posted.

07.01.2022 We hope everyone shared the love for Harmony Day. We're still full from a slap-up lunch. The lemon myrtle cheesecake was VERY popular!

04.01.2022 The Award review being carried out by the Fair Work Commission has again led to a big shakeup of Australia's employment law landscape, which will likely lead to some of the country's most vulnerable workers having the benefit of award coverage.

04.01.2022 The appeals bench of the Fair Work Commission decided yesterday that the Commission has the power to order an employer to redeploy a bullied worker. Read more in Jay's article below.

04.01.2022 Happy 30th Birthday to Toni, who has been a vital part of FWO's workforce for years.
