Secret salary details, brutal takedowns of colleagues - and a furious workforce. Today, the HR disaster engulfing plaintiff law firm Slater + Gordon.  

A podcast episode on 26 February titled "Slater + Gordon's 'fake email' nightmare" made reference to the fact Mari Ruiz-Matthyssen's name was used in an email to all staff at her former firm, Slater and Gordon.  The Australian accepts Ms Ruiz-Matthyssen did not author and did not send the email and apologises to her if any viewers took the podcast to be suggesting otherwise.
