Richelle Bentley
We have been a member of ACFA for the past five years, and it has been an extremely positive and
valuable relationship for our business. The resources provided, including building contracts, HR
documentation such as staff contracts, award rates, and WHS materials, have been incredibly useful and
have saved us a significant amount of time and effort.
More recently, we took advantage of the two complimentary 30-minute legal advice sessions following a
difficult customer situation. The lawyer took the time to thoroughly review the matter and provided clear,
well-informed, and practical advice. It also gave us peace of mind knowing that the contracts we are using
are legally sound and up to date.
With the current economic pressures impacting businesses across the country, having access to these
resources and support has been invaluable. Not having to worry about drafting contracts or navigating
complex issues alone allows us to focus on running our business with confidence.
