LegalVision LegalVision is a commercial law firm built for SMEs and in-house teams. LegalVision was born in 2012 as an online legal documents business.

Across Australia, New Zealand and the UK, we provide unlimited legal support through a fixed-fee membership and use tech to deliver fast, affordable and business-friendly legal advice LegalVision is a team of lawyers, technologists, marketing mavericks, strategists and operations gurus who are drawn together by a shared vision of changing the delivery of legal services in Australia. The founding team brought together legal expertise, tech sensibilities and a passion for growth. Early adopters loved our user-friendly legal documents, but wanted more from their legal services provider. So we started helping clients find legal support through an online marketplace. Delivering consistently high-quality services for our clients has always been LegalVision’s top priority – so our next pivot was natural. In 2014, LegalVision established an incorporated legal practice, which enabled us to provide legal services directly to clients, rather than through independent suppliers. At each stage in our journey, we have grown and evolved by listening – and responding – to the needs of our clients, who range from SMEs to fast-growing startups and large corporates. It’s not in our nature to accept that the existing way of doing things is the best way. We are committed to constantly improving the delivery of legal services, so that we can keep offering our clients legal support that is useful and accessible. LegalVision is at the forefront of the NewLaw movement and will continue to drive innovation in a rapidly-evolving legal industry.

Letting staff work from overseas for a few weeks can trigger visa breaches, foreign tax liabilities and offshore employment obligations that most employers don’t plan for.

“Employers also sometimes assume Australian obligations pause because the employee is physically overseas. They do not.”

Our Employment Practice Leader, Nicholas Potter, was featured in Human Resources Director on the hidden compliance risks in offshore work arrangements. His tip: no overseas work without prior approval.

With your team increasingly using AI, it’s essential to have clear business rules for staff use. But how do you put safeguards in place without limiting innovation?

That was the challenge for our client, The Environment Partnership.

With 170 employees across five offices, TEP wanted its staff to explore AI without compromising confidential information, client data, or intellectual property.

TEP worked with LegalVision to build a more practical approach to AI governance.

Three lessons from TEP’s experience:
• Clear rules are essential when staff may be entering business or client information into AI tools.
• An AI policy alone is not enough. Training, risk assessments, and visibility over staff use also matter.
• Blanket bans can drive AI use out of sight. Practical safeguards can support responsible experimentation instead.

With LegalVision’s support, TEP introduced a clearer governance framework that gave staff more confidence to explore AI while creating greater consistency across the business.

As Mike Hodgkinson put it, “consistency and confidence are the things we’ve seen the most of.”

If your staff are already using AI, LegalVision can help you put practical safeguards in place without losing sight of the opportunities.

Employers can require staff to use AI tools, but the Fair Work Commission can still find a dismissal unfair if concerns were not properly addressed.

"The direction should fit the role, be supported by training, and deal with risks such as confidentiality, copyright, accuracy and client disclosure."

Our Practice Group Leader, Joel Hayden, was quoted in The Sydney Morning Herald on when requiring AI use at work becomes an employment law risk.

Proposed Privacy Act reforms could require HR teams to justify AI candidate screening as fair and reasonable, a standard many businesses would struggle to meet.

"The most practical AI rule is simple: do not put employee, applicant or health information into unapproved AI tools, and keep human review in any decision that affects someone's job."

Our Practice Leader, Phoebe Chester, was featured in HR Leader on how proposed Privacy Act changes could affect how businesses handle employee and candidate data.

Removing a card surcharge is not just about switching off a setting at checkout. Retailers have until 1 October to audit every touchpoint where the fee appears.

"Businesses will need to decide whether to absorb those costs, adjust base prices or renegotiate payment fees with their third-party payment processors."

Our Practice Leader, Lauren McKee, was featured in Power Retail on what retailers need to do before the surcharge ban takes effect.

Food fraud liability doesn't stop at the manufacturer. Retailers, importers and hospitality businesses can all be on the hook - even when they trusted their supplier's description.

"Any business that makes, adopts, or passes on the inaccurate claim could face legal responsibility."

LegalVision Practice Leader Charlotte Hale has written for Retail World Magazine on why food fraud liability extends across the whole supply chain, and what businesses should do to protect themselves.
