Executive and CEO employment agreements
TV, film and sports industry employment contracts
Senior hire and contractor agreements
SME employment contracts and HR frameworks

The CL+C Employment Experience
Employment matters are often urgent, always personal, and rarely straightforward.
We work quickly and clearly — giving you honest advice about your options before you commit to anything. Whether you're a business owner protecting your position or an executive navigating a complex exit, we'll help you understand what you're dealing with and what to do next.
No jargon. No unnecessary process. No surprises on the invoice.
Employment issues rarely announce themselves. It's worth a conversation when:
You're hiring a senior employee, contractor or executive
You're negotiating or reviewing an employment contract
You work in TV, film, sport or media and need industry-specific advice
You're facing a termination, redundancy or workplace dispute
A Fair Work claim has been made against your business
You're an executive navigating a performance process or exit
Your employment contracts haven't been reviewed in the last two years
