Employment Law

Our Employment Law Team acts for both employers and employees in all aspects of the employment relationship.  Our team is made up of lawyers who are first and foremost employment specialists.  They are passionate about, and solely dedicated to, practising employment law.  They have diverse backgrounds including experience working overseas and in different industries and sectors giving a rounded and balanced approach to law and practice.

Our team specialises in providing advice to both large and small employers on the day to day management of employees.  We believe employees are the most valuable resource a business has and must be managed effectively balancing the need to incentivise staff, maximise productivity and protect your business. 

Employment Law presents a complex array of obligations but our experience of best practice and pro-active approach means we can work with you to advise and guide you through this.  For example, we understand the effect of employment agreements, policies and procedures on your business and can assist in drafting these documents to minimise the occurrence of employment relationship problems and maximise the value of human resources for your business.

If employment relationship problems do occur, we advocate alternative dispute resolution (for example mediation) wherever possible as a way of resolving disputes in a cost effective manner that minimises the damage to any ongoing relationships.

Where alternative dispute resolution is unsuccessful or inappropriate, our team are skilled advocates and can represent employers in the Employment Relations Authority, Employment Court, High Court and Court of Appeal.
