Navigating an unfair dismissal claim can be one of the most difficult and stressful moments for a business owner. At Kane Independent Consulting, we understand the pressure and uncertainty that comes with these situations, and we’re here to help you respond confidently, lawfully, and fairly.

As a trusted HR partner, I work closely with business owners across Melbourne and regional Victoria to assess the facts, review relevant workplace documentation, and guide you through the Fair Work process. Whether it’s an employee claim you didn’t see coming, or you’re unsure how to proceed with a high-risk termination, I offer calm, experienced support every step of the way.

Preventing unfair dismissal claims begins with the right structure, documentation, and communication, and that’s where my passion lies. I go beyond a surface-level fix. I take time to understand your business inside out, including your operational and financial pressures, so the advice you receive is practical, not theoretical.

With over 25 years of experience in HR and workplace relations, I’ve helped countless businesses avoid unnecessary legal costs and reputational damage. I provide proactive coaching on documentation, disciplinary processes, and performance management, and I support clients through mediations, Fair Work conciliations, and formal hearings.

If you’re currently managing a claim or concerned about an employee situation that may lead to one, reach out. Together, we’ll take the emotion out of the equation and create a clear path forward, based on facts, fairness, and legal compliance.

Your people are your greatest asset, but they can also be your greatest risk if things go wrong. Let’s work together to ensure your business is protected, your employees are treated with respect, and you remain in control of the outcome.
