Questions

Is this legal advice?

No. TerminationHelp provides the information and documents you need to file, at a fraction of the price. If your matter is complex, your pack will explain the legal or factual complexity flags, and recommend that you consider seeking legal advice. If you do get a lawyer, you bring in a complete, organised file, with a referral memo outlining the specific issues requiring attention.

How long does it take?

The questions take about two minutes. Once you’ve uploaded your documents, your pack is usually ready within minutes.

What if I’ve missed the deadline?

The Commission can accept a late application in exceptional circumstances. If you have missed a filing deadline, your pack will include an extension application and guidance on next steps.

What happens at conciliation?

A Commission conciliator runs a confidential phone or video meeting with you and your employer to see whether the claim can be settled. It usually takes a few hours. Your conciliation pack includes everything you need for a conciliation, including a chronology of events; a list of the matters that are agreed between the parties and a list of matters that are in dispute; a list of claims made by each party that are, or are not, substantiated by evidence or are contradicted by evidence; guidance as to the range of outcomes that are available if the matter is decided by the Commission (which is helpful in working out whether to accept a settlement offer); and a list of clauses you may wish to include in any settlement agreement.

I’m thinking of using a lawyer. Is TerminationHelp still useful?

Yes, if you’re thinking of using a lawyer, TerminationHelp is still a great first step. Why? Because TerminationHelp will tell you whether legal advice is needed based on legal and factual complexity indicators, or based on your personal circumstances. If your matter is out of time, or otherwise defective, TerminationHelp will identify that too, potentially saving you substantial fees. If you do need legal advice, you can take your fully prepared claim to a lawyer for review. The documents prepared by TerminationHelp in just 1–2 minutes could take a lawyer half a day or more. When you are paying by the hour, being organised and prepared is the best way to control your legal costs.

What happens to my documents?

They’re used only to prepare your pack, and the AI work on them runs in Australia. You can ask us to delete them at any time. Privacy

Can I get a refund?

If your pack isn’t delivered within 24 hours of payment, you get a full refund. This doesn’t limit your rights under the Australian Consumer Law. Terms
