I started Traeger Legal because I believe that accessing high-quality employment law advice should feel approachable, not intimidating. Whether you are a business owner trying to do the right thing by your team, or an employee facing an unfair situation, the legal system can feel overwhelming. My job is to bridge that gap.

My approach

The pathway to resolution

Consultation
Negotiation
Resolution

I assess your case, advise you of your options, and step into your shoes to act on behalf of you or your business to resolve the situation.  This clear pathway removes the stress, allowing you or your business to confidently move forward.

I start by listening. In our initial meeting, I'll work with you to understand what the issues are, assess the situation from a legal perspective (considering State or Federal workplace laws) and provide a clear, jargon-free outline of the options open to you or your business, as well as the risks. I will also let you know the potential costs involved. You will leave knowing exactly where you stand.

I take the stress off your shoulders. Whether we are communicating with opposing lawyers or participating in  commission conferences, my goal is to advocate fiercely for your position or that of your business. I aim to reach a strong, fair outcome as soon as practicable without the need for unnecessary and costly legal processes.

I secure an outcome. From finalising confidential settlement deeds and updating workplace contracts to formal representation in the relevant commission, I ensure the matter is finalised so you can move forward with absolute certainty.
