No-win-no-fee lawyers for unfair dismissal claims

Three firms that state, on their own sites, that they take unfair dismissal work on a no-win-no-fee basis. Named directly, not ranked, and not affiliated with this site.

"No win, no fee" generally means a firm does not charge its own fee if your claim does not succeed. Separately from any lawyer's fee, the Fair Work Commission itself charges an application fee of $92.70 for 2026-27, effective 1 July 2026, regardless of which firm, if any, you use to lodge. The three firms below each state, in their own words on their own sites, that they take unfair dismissal work at the Fair Work Commission on a no-win-no-fee basis. Each was checked directly on 15 September 2026. This site is not affiliated with any of them, does not rank them, and receives nothing for naming them.

The three firms

  • Berrigan Doube Lawyers (Sydney NSW, Melbourne VIC, Brisbane QLD): states on its own site it will "ordinarily assess and, where appropriate, act in dismissal matters on a 'no win, no fee' basis," and that "eligible clients can pursue their claim without being required to pay legal fees upfront."
  • Connect Legal (Sydney NSW, Brisbane QLD, Perth WA, and stating Australia-wide coverage): states its solicitors "can help you defend and safeguard your employment... rights on a 'No Win No Fee' basis," specifically including "the Fair Work Commission... all on a 'No Win No Fee' basis."
  • Vas + Co. (Melbourne, VIC; this firm's own site gives no office address, so the Melbourne location is confirmed via a third-party business listing rather than the firm's own page, and is flagged here for that reason): states a "GENUINE no win, no fee* arrangement, no hidden tricks or traps," framed specifically around Fair Work Commission unfair dismissal claims.

What this list is not

This is not a recommendation, a ranking, or a claim that these are the only firms offering no-win-no-fee unfair dismissal work in Australia. It is three firms verified directly, on the date stated, as a starting point if you are looking for one. Their fee structures beyond the no-win-no-fee framing itself, such as any percentage or cap on what they take from an award, are not stated here because they were not sourced from each firm's own page.
