WR Law

WR Law provides Employment Workplace Lawyer and Advisory services to employers across Bendigo and regional Victoria, combining HR understanding with in house legal support.

• Advises on employment contracts and correct industrial instrument coverage for employees across all industry sectors, available as a once off engagement or as part of ongoing HR packages.
• Covers the full range of employment law matters including Fair Work Act compliance audits, unfair dismissal, adverse action, discrimination, sexual harassment and enterprise bargaining processes.
• Led by principal Rosa Raco, who has over 25 years of experience in Human Resources, Employee Relations and Employment Law, including as Special Counsel for a national firm in Melbourne before returning to Bendigo.
• If a matter turns legal it can be handled directly by the in house legal team, giving employers a combined HR and legal pathway rather than a separate referral.

Best for: regional Victorian employers wanting a single Bendigo based adviser for employment contracts, Fair Work compliance and legal representation in dismissal or adverse action disputes.

WR Law also conducts Workplace Investigations for employers across regional Victoria, handling misconduct and grievance matters with a legal framework overlay.

• Investigations are described as thorough and procedurally fair, conducted by a team with many years of experience across a range of industries.
• Handles matters including alleged misconduct, serious misconduct, bullying and sexual harassment, acting on behalf of employers through to resolution.
• Investigations are supported by the firm’s legal team, allowing findings to feed directly into termination, adverse action or Fair Work Commission processes where required.

Best for: regional employers needing a procedurally fair, legally grounded investigation into workplace misconduct or bullying complaints.
