Jewell Hancock Employment Lawyers

Jewell Hancock Employment Lawyers was established by Andrew Jewell and Trent Hancock to provide a more personalised, pragmatic and cost-effective service for employees facing workplace disputes. Drawing on their combined experience of more than 20 years within a boutique Melbourne employment law firm, they set out to create a practice that prioritises clear communication and transparent costs. The firm operates on an entirely fixed fee basis, with clear explanations of legal costs provided from the first appointment, helping clients to understand and manage their expenses. For clients who have been dismissed, the firm often offers assistance on a no-win no-fee basis (excluding disbursements), making legal support more accessible. To enhance affordability and convenience, Jewell Hancock primarily works through telephone, video conference and email, while still offering in-person appointments when requested. Lawyers from the firm are committed to representing clients in court when needed. A key feature of the firm’s approach is its independence. The firm does not undertake work for employers nor receive referrals from unions, ensuring that all advice and representation provided is free from conflicts of interest and tailored solely to the client’s circumstances. Jewell Hancock Employment Lawyers is recognised as a leading employment law firm in Australia for employee and trade union representation, reflecting its expertise and commitment to clients. Its practice areas cover a wide range of workplace issues, including unfair dismissal, workplace bullying, discrimination, contract advice, redundancy, underpayment claims and more. Clients seeking a transparent, supportive and experienced employment law firm can book an appointment online or contact Jewell Hancock for a confidential, no-obligation discussion.
