Why Partner with DOHR?
Support you can rely on
When your clients need practical HR solutions that complement your legal advice, you need a partner who understands both the people issues and the legal risks. With a wealth of experience across multiple sectors, we bring you the confidence of seasoned professionals who know how to navigate complex employment matters.
Designed with your role in mind
We understand the pressures you face when employment issues land on your desk. Whether you’re advising on a sensitive grievance or navigating a difficult disciplinary, our team provides the behind-the-scenes HR support that helps you deliver a comprehensive service without the added workload.
Truly independent oversight
Sometimes, your client needs someone neutral. In cases involving senior managers, owners, or potential conflicts of interest, we act as an impartial third party—protecting the integrity of the process and supporting fair, defensible outcomes.
Capacity when you need it
Your clients may not have the in-house expertise—or the time—to manage HR processes thoroughly. At DOHR we bridge that gap, giving them the structured, compliant approach they need; while ensuring you stay focused on the legal aspects of their case.
Strengthen the support you offer
With DOHR by your side, you gain access to a team of experienced HR Advisors who can support your clients at every stage of an employee relations process—from initial investigation through to appeal. You stay in control of the legal direction, while we ensure the HR process is fair, compliant and professionally managed.
Grievance Handling
Give your clients confidence in handling sensitive employee concerns. We manage grievances with care and impartiality, promoting a safe and respectful working environment while reducing the risk of escalation.
Workplace Investigations
You can rely on us for detailed, objective investigations that meet best practice standards and reflect your client’s internal policies. Our methodical approach ensures they have the facts they need to make informed, defensible decisions.
Disciplinary Hearings
Whether your client needs discreet behind-the-scenes support or hands-on delivery of the full disciplinary process, we can help. From notetaking to chairing hearings, we tailor our input to suit the situation and ensure every step is fair, transparent and legally sound.
Appeals
When an employee challenges an outcome, the process must be handled with care. We provide independent, impartial support to hear appeals, helping your clients reduce risk and demonstrate procedural fairness.
Mediation
Help your clients resolve disputes before they escalate. Our professional mediation services encourage open dialogue, rebuild trust and protect working relationships—without formal proceedings where possible.
