You can call us anytime after normal hours, on the weekends and during public holidays. Should I be unavailable due to being in a mediation or an Employment Relations Authority hearing or meeting with an employment lawyer, then leave a quick message and we will call you back at my next available opportunity which will be either during my next break or as soon as I get your message. Should you prefer to txt me then send your txt to 021 77 1919. Unless your physical safety is in danger then it is best to get advice before responding to any situation. Many employees and employers are initally right in what they have done or what has happened, however they have let themselves down by responding with a communication that has either very much reduced the strength of thier case, or dug themselves a hole that they now will have dificulty climbing out of.
Answers to common employment law problems can be found on our FAQ page. If your question is not listed here, then ask me directly and I will answer for free.
In the past twelve months to the end of April 2012, I have personally concluded 108 disputes of which 101 resulted in the parties successfully resolving consensually. This is a success rate of 93.5%. I have also had 9 matters taken to the Employment Relations Authority (ERA) in the past year of which I have won 7/7 representing employees and 1/2 representing the employer).
What am I up to and where am I this week?
I help both employees and employers in resolving employment problems either directly, or via the otehr side's employment lawyer or employment advocate, at Department of Labour Mediation, at the Employment Relations Authority and now even at the Employment Court. My site is divided into two separate areas, one for employers and the other for employees. One of my points of difference from other employment specialists and employment lawyers is that I am resolution focused and I pride myself in being able to view a dispute from both sides. By helping the people I work with do this helps resolve the situation in a pragmatic manner without anyone spending a fortune in legal or representation fees. I am able to do this with my mediation background. I have another site dedicated to this, mediate.co.nz. Once you have viewed the material of interest to you I would recommend that you then explore what I have to say on the other half of my site. I.E employees take a read of the employer information and employers take a read of the employee information.
Virtually all employment situations can be resolved consensually with the likes of myself or any other advocate or employment lawyer, provided both sides are prepared to be pragmatic, fair, reasonable and are able to communicate effectively. Save yourself fees and try to communicate with each other first. If you do nothing then I can guarantee you at least once outcome. That outcome is Nothing! Try communicating with the other side first. If that does not work or you feel uncomfortable in doing so then by all means contact me on 0800 HELP ME (0800 435 763) or fill in the quick confidential contact form as per above or via email danny.gelb@employmentlaw.net.nz
