no win no fee employment advocates wellington
Our Wellington Employment Advocate can help you with difficult employment relationship problems.
We believe everyone should have access to legal representation to defend their rights under New Zealand employment law.
We have Employment Advocates available in Wellington who can help you take action if you can’t resolve your employment problems. Our experienced, qualified employment law specialists can often sort out your employment law problem very quickly.
Just like employment lawyers, we are employment law experts. The only difference is that we are able to offer you our services on a contingency fee, which means we only charge you if we are successful.
When is it No Win No Fee and When is it Hourly rate?
The exception to the no win no fee arrangement is where we are trying to save your job and there is unlikely to be a financial outcome, for example representing you at disciplinary meetings.

Sandy is so supportive.
I emailed Sandy on the recommendation of a friend. The response I got was beyond anything I expected. Firstly my email was answered within an hour, which was not what I was counting on. This was followed up with a voice message which immediately had me feeling I was in good hands. By that evening I had the pleasure of sharing my situation with Sandy and getting supported to get clear with the people I needed to speak to. With Sandy’s help I have managed to forward things in a way that is helpful to all party’s. Would not hesitate to call this fabulous woman at the drop of a hat – great service from someone who you know has got your back.
I couldn't have done this without Sandy
I can’t thank Sandy enough for her kind, professional, clear and timely support. Sandy went above and beyond to help me find a resolution, I couldn’t have done it without her.
Sandy took the time to explain everything to me in an easy to understand way, and was very communicative and reassuring with any worries or questions I had.
It was a very stressful situation for me, and every time after communicating with Sandy, I felt like a weight had been lifted off my shoulders. Her empathetic and grounding approach was exactly what I needed.
I highly recommend Sandy and the team and Worklaw.
Sandy you’re amazing! Absolute lifesaver 😊
After a stressful couple of days racking my brain over what to do after receiving a without-prejudice email from my employer… it took just twenty minutes on the phone with Sandy and I had a draft response email ready to confidently send to my soon-to-be ex boss! she was so happy to help and made the whole process stress free and easy.
Sandy takes you under her wing and makes everything better.
Sandy is very friendly and has a very calming presence which is so important at a stressful time. From the moment you speak to her you feel she takes you under her wing, & will make everything better. Her very pleasant manner (with me) was reassuring & she produced quick results. I was astounded at how quickly she got me out of a very nasty environment with a happy result.
Results in only a few days!
Sandy alleviated the stress from a challenging situation and delivered excellent results in just a few days. Her efficiency and support during a stressful time were commendable.
