In New Zealand, employment lawyers don’t usually offer “No Win No Fee” services. Under the Lawyers and Conveyancers Act 2006 Conditional fee agreements are not permitted to make provisions for a contingency fee based on a fixed percentage. Employment advocates offer “No Win, No Fee” services, providing access to justice for NZ Employees who cannot afford hourly rate representation by an Employment Lawyer.
Do Employment Lawyers ever offer No Win No Fee?
If an employment lawyer, holding a current Practicing Certificate offers a No Win No Fee arrangement, it will likely be because they have evaluated the potential success of your case and quoted for the service at their hourly rate. The fees as quoted would be payable at settlement. If the Lawyer doesn’t manage to settle your case for more than the quoted fees, you could potentially come away with nothing.
An Employment Advocate may have a Law Degree, but not be allowed to call themselves an Employment Lawyer.
No Win No Fee doesn’t mean our services are free of charge. At Work Law Ltd, we attempt to recover your legal fees from your Employer. When we are able to recover our fees from your employer we don’t need to take a percentage of your settlement, however, when we do take a percentage, on cases up to and including mediation, it is never more than one-third of your settlement.
What our clients are saying
Rarely does one want/need a lawyer, but when circumstances required I obtain one, Hilary and the WorkLaw team took exceptionally good care of me, had my back all throughout, and ensured the best possible outcome. It was an educational-process to say the least, but I am glad I trusted Hilary and went with WorkLaw. I cannot thank Sandy enough for her support throughout my employment matter. From the very beginning she was professional, knowledgeable, reassuring, and incredibly easy to communicate with during what was a very stressful time for me. Sandy always made sure I understood the process, gave honest advice, and handled everything calmly and professionally. Thanks to her guidance, we achieved a very positive outcome that I was genuinely happy with. I highly recommend Sandy and Work Law to anyone needing employment advice or representation. Thank you again Sandy. I truly appreciate everything you did for me.Hilary Had My Back Every Step of the Way
