Thank you so much for everything you have done. You have made one of the worst times into my life a blessing. Your voice was very calming and instantly made me feel at ease and that you wanted to help so yes once again thank you 🙂 Stay safe.

Thank you so much, Dave. I can’t express my gratitude for what you have done for me, a few weeks ago I felt so lost and at a demise, but you saved me from that, so I do thank you for everything.

Sorry this email has taken me so long. I want to thank you so much for your very rapid response and the way in which you got right on to my grievance. It was handled with such consideration and in such a timely manner. Thank you again.
TB - Christchurch
Thank you, Dave, from both T and myself for your hard work and dedication to our cause. You certainly represented us very well and the resulting agreement was a testament to that. It has been a hard and arduous process but we both feel better having made them understand they can't treat honest people so badly. Glad you stuck with us and we wholeheartedly thank you for that. It is nice in life when you hit an obstacle, to have the right people beside you, guiding the way. Once again thanks so much.

On behalf of my family and myself I would like to thank the team at Sacked Kiwi for their patience, guidance and support. I was at the crossroads in regards to my situation and if it had not been for your professional advice and persistence I believe I would have given up. I was involved in every step of the process from start to finish, you helped me keep the faith then delivered exactly as you had promised - great integrity. I would recommend the services of Sacked Kiwi to anyone in a heartbeat. Our gratitude to you all and take care, please. We are blessed.

Good morning, yesterday afternoon I reluctantly met a very nice man whose name is Alex. I would like to thank Sacked Kiwi for their very professional service. Alex turned a very stressful day around and this morning I woke to beautiful clear brisk morning. I'm glad to be alive and ready to continue on my life journey and I'm looking forward to my next adventure. Thank you so much for taking the load off. I totally recommend your services, upwards and onwards.
FAQs
Unfair dismissal occurs in two forms: when an employer terminates an employee without process and when the employer does not have a substantive, valid reason for the dismissal.
Employers often make mistakes in dismissals. If you think you’ve been unfairly dismissed, call our toll-free employment hotline and talk to an expert.
In New Zealand, the 90-day trial period allows employers to hire new staff and evaluate their suitability for up to 90 days. During this time, employers have the flexibility to dismiss an employee without facing claims for unjustified dismissal, making it easier to make hiring decisions with less risk.
Employers often get 90-day trials wrong, making it possible to make an unjustified/unfair dismissal claim. Always get your 90-day trial period dismissals checked with our team of Employment Advocates on our toll-free employment advice hotline, you may have a case!
Everyone has the right to a support person at a disciplinary meeting. Many people find disciplinary meetings difficult, so you should seek an advocate to speak on your behalf and help you through the process.
Why? Disciplinary Meetings are often the first steps an employer takes towards dismissing an employee, so it’s crucial that you have legal representation. Our team of employment law advocates is ready to help.
Employment advocates in New Zealand are specialists who focus exclusively on resolving workplace disputes, such as unfair treatment, dismissals, and pay issues.
Advocates offer a more affordable alternative to lawyers and often provide better guidance and representation in employment matters. With their specialized knowledge, employment advocates can effectively assist clients through negotiations, mediation, and Employment Relations Authority (ERA) proceedings.
If you’re dealing with a workplace issue, consider checking out our team to meet our experienced advocates and see how we can help protect your rights.
With over a decade of representing employees in New Zealand, Sacked Kiwi prides itself on making employment justice accessible to everyone. Justice should not be locked behind hundreds of dollars for a consultation.
