No Win No Fee Employment Law Advocates Christchurch
If you’re in Christchurch, seeking employment advice contact us now on 0800 669 466 to speak to one of our advocates.
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.

What our clients are saying
Right from the first phone call Kam put me at ease. She took pages of information and arranged it in a clear, easy to understand and compact format. She took on the 2 lawyers my employers retained and never wavered once. Without Kam’s expertise I would not have received the final outcome. Totally recommend Kam for outstanding service. I recently had the need to engage with Jenifer Silva from Work Law NZ for assistance with an employment issue, and I cannot praise her enough for the outstanding support provided. From the moment I reached out, Jenifer was not only professional and highly knowledgeable, but also incredibly compassionate and understanding of the horrible employment situation I found myself in. Jenifer’s approach to resolving my employment issue was meticulous and very proactive. Jenifer ensured I was informed and aware of every step along the way. I was very impressed with her willingness to go the extra mile to safeguard my interests and to ensure an optimum and timely outcome. I was not in a great space through this ordeal and it was comforting to find someone who not only excels in their field but also truly cares about people. Thankfully the issue was resolved to my complete satisfaction all thanks to Jenifer’s skill and experience and her guidance along the way. I wholeheartedly recommend Jenifer Silva and the team at Work Law NZ to anyone seeking employment related legal guidance coupled with the human element. The commitment to people’s well-being and finding a fair outcome within a short time frame is representative of the service I received. It was impressive and empathetic.Kam never wavered in her outstanding service.
Jenifer is knowledgeable, compassionate and proactive.
