In April 2010 I organised a dinner for the Inner-West Law Society for lawyers and their clients at which Elizabeth Devine was the speaker. Elizabeth spoke on the topic of “Fair Work Fundamentals: what you and your clients need to know about the Fair Work Act 2009 and related employment law”. The response to Elizabeth’s presentation was overwhelmingly positive and appreciative. She presented a complicated legal topic in a clear and authoritative manner and provided attendees with well-prepared notes. Her presentation was impeccable and highly professional, as well as being enjoyable. I highly recommend Elizabeth as a speaker and as a preferred source for specialist legal advice.

I worked with Elizabeth Devine in the period 2006 to 2009, during which period she provided me, in my capacity as General Counsel of a multi-national corporation in the IT industry, with holistic, practical legal advice on many employment related matters. Elizabeth engaged with the Legal Team using a total relationship approach and her expertise in employment law is undoubted. She was very responsive to our needs and provided us with valuable continuing guidance and training in the ever changing and difficult employment law environment.

I have worked with Elizabeth Devine in my capacity as a senior manager over period of seven years with various companies. I have found Elizabeth’s advice, counsel and guidance in employment-related matters to be invaluable. Her advice is practical and straightforward and has helped me successfully navigate the complexities of the law with successful results.

Elizabeth has the capacity to quickly analyse the situation and respond promptly with recommendations.

I have also found her proactive “prevention is better than cure” approach to be most welcome, particularly in-house seminars for senior managers outlining the major issues of employment law that every manager will face from time-to time.

I would highly recommend Elizabeth as a highly skilled and professional legal resource to any prospective client.
