Colin Revelman
Special Counsel

Colin advises both employers and senior level employees in a wide range of workplace matters, including unfair dismissal, adverse action, discrimination, underpayment, breach of contract, and restraint of trade.

With more than 15 years of legal experience, including running his own law practice, Colin has a proven record of achieving practical outcomes in high-stakes workplace matters. His clients value his commercial acumen and his talent for simplifying complex legal issues into clear, actionable guidance.

Prior to law, Colin built a successful career in private and public hospitality and commercial real estate firms. This real-world business experience gives him a unique perspective on the practical challenges faced by employers, enabling him to guide clients through complex workplace issues with insight and precision.

I can honestly say their service was 11 out of 10. If you’re looking for a legal team that combines professionalism with genuine care for their clients, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Roberts Crosbie Mortensen.

I can’t recommend Roberts Crosbie Mortensen highly enough.

From the very beginning, Tammy, Colin and Haydon provided exceptional support and genuinely went above and beyond throughout what was a very personal and complex employment matter. They were always honest, approachable, realistic and took the time to make sure I understood every step of the process.

A special thank you to Colin for his professionalism, calm approach and expertise in navigating such a sensitive and complicated matter. He struck the perfect balance between providing clear legal advice and showing genuine understanding of what I was going through. I always felt that he had my best interests at heart and was committed to achieving the best possible outcome.

Tammy and Haydon were equally fantastic, always responsive, supportive and willing to help whenever I needed guidance. The whole team worked seamlessly together, and I always felt like I was in capable hands.

Thanks!

Colin was very knowledgeable and took time to explain everything to me in simple English. If you need fast, efficient and quality service go to RCM lawyers.

Highly recommend this company. Colin and Unna were a breath of fresh air. I needed some advice and had to make a submission. Terrible experience from another law firm who kept me hanging on for 2 days then saying they can’t help me. I called Unna this morning. Had an appointment with Colin at 12pm and was able to successfully submit what I had to. Unna acted extremely responsibly and efficiently bearing in mind that I had a deadline to meet today.

I firmly believe RCM are well positioned to give the finest level of service on all matters in their portfolio

I would like to share my recent experience with Mr Colin Revelman.

I found the interaction with Colin to be articulate, positive with a full overview of potential scenarios depending on what instruction could be potentially given on this matter.

I found the wise legal counsel provided by Colin Revelman invaluable during a complex resolution of a matter with our former employer.
