McDonald Murholme is well-known for its expertise, acting for employees.

The law firm was formally established in 1996 having incorporated the practice of Alan McDonald who practiced in employment law and other areas as both a barrister and a solicitor since 1978. The firm grew rapidly in response to a demand by employees following changes to the employment laws in the 1990’s. Recent indicators show that it is the preferred choice by a majority of employees in Victoria.

The radical changes made by Julia Gillard as the Minister of Employment and Workplace Relations in 2009 substantially increased workplace rights. These rights are utilised by McDonald Murholme for benefits of its clients. This is now its core business. It has acted in many of the landmark cases and continues to do so with vigour and enthusiasm.

The firm has been a member of Quality in Law (QL) since 1997. The Excellence in Law program fuels the firm’s systems to ensure that it can deliver an efficient, and affordable legal service when acting for individuals, who do not budget for unexpected or high legal costs.

McDonald Murholme comprises a good balance of bright young lawyers and experienced employment lawyers.
