Employment Advocate in Wellington
How Sacked Kiwi can help with personal grievances
Many employees don’t know the full extent of the laws protecting their rights at work. Do you feel unfairly dismissed, pushed out of your job by an employer or manager, or dismissed on a 90-day trial period? Often, an employer doesn’t fulfil its obligations under the law during a dismissal. Our team of Employment Advocates is ready to help you navigate the employment law landscape.
The cost of an employment lawyer in Wellington
Hiring an employment lawyer in Wellington is costly. Many offer free initial conversations with clients, but once the ‘free trial’ expires, they can charge you up to $400 an hour for their time. Employment Lawyers in Wellington are costly and inaccessible. At Sacked Kiwi, we pride ourselves on being part of the change in the legal community, making employment justice more accessible. Most of our clients qualify for our No Win No Fee policy, meaning that in most cases, we don’t charge anything upfront for a grievance and will cover your costs until we achieve an outcome. Often, this means your employer ends up paying our fees.

A fee may apply for these services. If you still have questions, call our toll-free employment hotline today and talk to our team of employment experts for free advice.
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.
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.
