Part 3-1 of the Fair Work Act 2009 provides for various protections for employees from adverse action by their employer. The objects of the General Protections provisions are to protect the workplace rights of employees, to provide protection from workplace discrimination and to provide effective relief for employees who have been victimised or adversely affected by their employer for exercising workplace rights.
Employees throughout Australia are protected from discrimination in the workplace including discriminatory conduct, sexual harassment, and victimisation by various state and federal antidiscrimination laws.
These laws prohibit individuals and employers from discriminating against employees for their protected attributes not limited to their race, colour, sex, age, physical or mental disability, sexual orientation, marital status, family or carer responsibilities, pregnancy, religion, political opinion, culture, national extraction or social origin.

Disability discrimination occurs when a person is treated less favourably, or not given the same opportunities as others in a similar situation, because of their disability. It can also occur when an unreasonable rule or policy is the same for everyone but has an unfair effect on people with a particular disability.

This is how Jake operates. Doesn't check much, and promises you the earth. Tries to act like a bully with the other side - but he's a wimp! When he can't get a quick result, (because he does no proper work), he turns on you an blames and bullies you to lie in affidavits, so that he can get some money. Stay away! This guy should be banned.

I previously worked for an international organization, unfortunately I was discriminated against, harassed and was dismissed prior to my probation. I sought legal advise and eventually chose Connect Legal to handle my case. The team there are genuinely incredible and I would discredit any poor reviews you see here. I can't thank Jake, Richard, Sara & Tavishi enough for their professional service. It did take some time as a result of legal processes within the courts, however I received a fair settlement and payout; as a result of their hard work.
Jake and his team are thorough and genuine. You

Jake and his team have been exceptional. It’s a small firm but they actually care about their clients. Every interaction with them has been professional yet empathetic towards my situation.
Jake was very upfront and honest about the process, fees and possibly outcome so I could make an informed decision. I highly recommend Connect Legal.

Worst "lawyers" I've ever encountered and Ive worked with dozens across Australia on many matters. Misled at EVERY turn. Kept calling me Adam instead of Andrew, late for meetings, VERY poor listeners. Get facts wrong when representing me to mediators and other lawyers which had to be re-explained to them over and over. Completely ruined an open & shut case. Hype things up in the beginning, ruin the guts of the case with poor attitude and skills, then say youre on your own because they messed things up. I believe they are only thinking about themselves and what money they can make out of their client
