Employment

We understand the nature of employment relationships and the employment law principles providing the context in which these relationships operate. This means whether acting for an employer or employee, we take the time to listen to our clients’ needs and the goals they wish to achieve. We then provide solution focused advice consistent with employment law principles, while taking into account the unique nature of relationships and the particular needs and goals of each client. Our employment services are available to access nationwide, with offices in Auckland and Wellington.
