No Win No Fee or hourly rate.

Depending on your situation we either work on a contingency basis (no win no fee, where we take a percentage of what we win for you) or on an hourly rate.  Often we can help you and your employer resolve your issues without you leaving your job, in this case we charge an hourly rate $300 + gst per hour.

We can represent your case at disciplinary meetings, exit negotiation meetings, redundancy negotiations, mediations through the Ministry of Business Innovation and Employment and hearings at the Employment Relations Authority.  We can assist with personal grievance claims and 90 day trial issues.

When things have gone too far and the employee/employer relationship is not fixable, we can often help you by negotiating an exit package. An exit package can include financial compensation as well as leaving date and sometimes a reference from your employer to move on with your employment in a positive manner.

Getting through disciplinary action  must be fair and reasonable in all the circumstances:

• the employer must have a good reason for undertaking the disciplinary action, and
• the employer must follow a fair process before making the decision and then acting on it.

If the employer does not have a good reason for the disciplinary action or did not follow a fair process, the employee may have a personal grievance.

If you are being subjected to bullying or sexual harassment, or discrimination, it’s important not to resign. Call us for a free, confidential phone consultation to discuss your issues.
