Top tier service at boutique rates
We do things a little different...
We don’t charge for quick phone calls for a check on whether your hunch was right, you had the law right or you just need a confirming view (we are a hotline – for free!). So dont be shy.
We don’t charge for any first time meet and greet.
Yes, we do adopt time charging but only if all else fails. We much prefer fixed project costing and we love monthly retainers.
We don’t charge copying, printing, or any associated costs.
We provide in house counsel days where we come and sit in your office, bring our laptops and do our own work, without charge, and answer questions and help out for the day, Sound weird? Well, maybe, but a good way to hang out! Yep, we are a free in house legal counsel for the day – just invite us for the day!

The service and professionalism displayed by Luke is excellent, along with his patience and courtesy. He does an exceptional job in cases i involve him in – clear communication and very reasonable on costs, and is always very responsive to calls and emails. I always feel assured that my matter is in good hands with Luke. Throughout the journey I have and continue to deal with an outstanding law firm in Connolly Workplace Law and with Luke leading the firm. I would highly recommend Luke and Connolly Workplace Law.

Luke has helped us with a variety of issues from EBA interpretation to individual contract advice and his support has proved very valuable.

Within days of being introduced to Luke he was solving problems for us. He’s commercially driven and grasps the nature of issues very quickly. Luke is extremely easy to work with, is results focused and most importantly he knows his stuff!
Steve Plarre
Chief Executive Officer - Ferguson Plarre Bakehouses
I have briefed Luke as an external lawyer for the past 10 years at each organization I’ve worked. With the experience and credentials of a top tier partner his technical skills are second to none. He is commercial, rational, clear and concise. He is always the first choice of the Specsavers business given how well he communicates and relates. Best of all his fees beat every other firm we engage. Highly recommend!
Jaci Langford
Head of Legal - Specsavers Pty Ltd
We have worked successfully with Luke at Connolly Workplace Law for over 3 years. We’ve continued to retain his services as he is thorough, pragmatic and punctual with of course all the pre-requisite expertise in workplace/HR law that a large employer such as Strikeforce needs. We’d have no hesitation in recommending him to others.
