Business Kitz Products are designed to streamline, systemise and help manage common business and human resources requirements and obligations faced by Australian businesses. Business Kitz is not a law firm and as such the supply of the Products is not the provision of legal services. The Products are standard templates and are not designed to suit your specific needs, objectives or circumstances and do not amount to legal or other advice. Using, receiving information from, downloading from, or otherwise interacting with our website, or purchasing any of the Products, does not mean that we become your lawyers or that a solicitor-client relationship is formed.
