New Legal Advice Line
Business Plus and Premium Members will have exclusive access to the ACFA Legal Advice Line, delivered in partnership with Easton Belle Lawyers
This initiative builds on ACFA’s existing unlimited workplace advice service, offering you tailored guidance on broader business matters that can protect your business.
What is included
For Business Plus & Premium Members:
Up to two x 30-minute free calls per member business, per financial year. Speak directly with a qualified solicitor for general advice and direction on common business issues such as:
✔️Contract disputes (with clients, suppliers, subcontractors)
✔️Terms and conditions or warranty compliance
✔️Consumer law obligations and unfair contract terms
✔️Intellectual property (trademark use and infringement)
✔️Leasing and commercial agreements
✔️Unfair dismissal and general protection claims
For Premium Members Only:
In addition to the above, Premium Members will also receive:
✔️One complimentary document review per annum (choose either a review of your warranty terms and conditions or a review of a settlement agreement)
✔️Issuance of letters of demand on Easton Belle Lawyers letterhead, giving your claim stronger legal weight
How it could help your business
Imagine chasing a client for weeks without payment. With this service, you could speak to a solicitor, understand your options, and have a letter of demand issued on Easton Belle Lawyers letterhead, giving your claim stronger legal weight.
Or, if you’re concerned about whether your warranty terms are compliant, you could use your complimentary document review to gain clarity and protect your business from disputes down the track.

To make the process simple and seamless:
✔️Contact the ACFA Workplace Advice Team with your enquiry
✔️We will collect the background information and any relevant documents
✔️ACFA will forward the details to Easton Belle Lawyers, so they have all the information in hand before contacting you
