Firm Profile

Executive Rights Employment Lawyers was established in 2001 by Bruce Planck, solicitor, to meet the particular needs of Australian executives with respect to their employment law issues. This includes those executives in the expatriate community. Since that time, a large number of executives in Australia and in international locations have benefited from the experience and dedication of the Executive Rights legal team. The firm acts for executives across all industry sectors.

Prior to establishing Executive Rights Employment Lawyers, Bruce Planck had practised as a solicitor in Melbourne, mainly in the area of contractual and commercial disputes. Since 1997, he has practised almost exclusively in the field of employment law, acting principally for executives at middle and senior management level.

Australian employment lawyers (Melbourne, Sydney) for middle to senior management employees

Executive Rights Employment Lawyers have expertise in providing employment law advice to middle to senior management employees in Sydney, Melbourne or any other Interstate or International location.

We have extensive experience and a track record in achieving excellent results for Australian executives in their employment law matters.

Need Urgent Advice on a Deed of Separation and Release?

You have only one chance to resolve those issues which will affect the rest of your career.

You need to lock down not only the financial but also the reputational issues arising from your departure.

We can advise on how to do that.

Facing a Redundancy?

Many senior employees labour under a misapprehension as to their redundancy rights.

The value of those rights depends upon the “fine print” of the redundancy policy or employment contract provisions (assuming they exist).

Your only entitlement to a severance payment may be based on Federal legislation.

You should make no assumptions about the value of those rights.

We can advise you as to your redundancy rights and how best to approach the negotiations to maximise the payout.

 Need an Employment Contract review?

The terms you bargain for when entering the employment relationship will significantly affect the terms you can expect to receive upon exiting that relationship.

Contractual terms are “organic” i.e. inter-related and need to be understood in that light.

We can advise on these issues.

 Facing a Disciplinary Meeting?

Knowing how to approach such a process is critical to your survival prospects.

You need to have a realistic appreciation of your legal position coupled with a diplomatic touch to achieve the outcome that will best advance your résumé and career.

We can assist you in achieving these goals.

In these and so many issues facing executives, the advice of an ancient Chinese strategist should be top of mind:

“The supreme art of war is to win without fighting” (Sun Tzu – The Art of War).
