The law sets down a process for dealing with many types of employment disputes, and it pays to follow it. There are many rights and responsibilities – employment law covers all aspects of the employment relationship, not just dismissals.
I act for both employers and employees. So if you’re hiring, firing, looking at a new contract, want out or having any issues within your workplace, talk to me before you take action.

My service to the field of Employment Law is something I pride myself on. My service includes representation and support at mediation, the Employment Relations Authority, Employment Court and Court of Appeal.
I am regularly asked to comment on employment matters by the media, and lecture in Employment Law at the University of Canterbury.
I also authored the Employment Law Chapter in 'Health Care and the Law', and am regularly invited to present on employment law matters at conferences and seminars.
