On Tuesday 12 March 2013 Nathan Luke partner of Stacks/The Law Firm Ballina gave a presentation to the Tweed Heads Chamber of Commerce entitled "protecting your Goodwill in the 21st Century". Bruce Charge and Ruth Whisker of Stacks/The Law Firm Tweed Heads were also in attendance.
Nathan's presentation touched on traditional protection of Goodwill such as Vendor and Employee restraints but focussed on the emergence of business review sites such as Yelp, City Search, Trip Advisor, Google places and how the law is struggling to keep up to give protection against malicious and false reviews. A range of effective practical alternatives was discussed.
The presentation matched well with a representative of the National Broadbank Network also in attendance to discuss the roll out of the NBN in the Tweed Area.


Our team members’ strength lies in their ability to:
- Identify key issues quickly;
- Break these key issues down into individual components;
- Provide relevant, clear and succinct advice in a timely manner; and
- Achieve optimal, cost effective outcomes for their clients.

Stacks/The Law Firm Ballina was very proud to be awarded the "Professional Services" Award at the recent gala dinner put on for 400 business men and women by the Ballina Chamber of Commerce and Industry.
We subsequently received a letter from the Local Federal Member for Page, Janelle Saffin, congratulating us on the award. In part Ms Saffin wrote "Small and medium businesses form the cornerstone of commerce in regional areas such as ours. Businesses like your are generally operated by dedicated owners and partnerships like yours who contribute significantly to their local communities and communities".
We thank Ms Saffin for those kind words. We also adopt those words ourselves and repeat them to our own clients who operate local businesses. Stacks/The Law Firm Ballina is very proud to provide legal services to many local businesses particularly in the area of Employment Law. Winning the Professional Services Award would not have been possible without the great support from our local clients.
