Fairness Isn't Just A Buzzword. 
It's the Standard.

Work can sometimes feel like a confusing maze, especially when your brain prefers to take the scenic route or mental health throws in a few unexpected twists. Maybe your focus zigzags while everyone else’s zooms ahead, or everyday meetings feel like a sensory obstacle course. That’s where we come in.

We’re your workplace sidekick, specialising in employment law, mediation and advocacy, but with a difference. We speak your language, cut through the jargon and champion your unique way of thinking. Whether you’re standing up to unfair treatment, navigating tricky disputes, or just trying to understand your rights without a headache, we’re here to make it clearer, kinder and a little less scary.

We don’t do quick fixes or tick boxes. We challenge, empower, and equip you to take control. Whether you’re on the tools, behind a desk, or leading the team, your rights won’t just be acknowledged, they’ll be firmly protected and fiercely defended.

Let’s start the conversation. Because you deserve more than just a solution, you deserve an equal edge.

Mental Health & Neurodiversity Support

Where your mental health isn’t a “problem"

It’s part of the plan.

We know life doesn't always play by the rules and neither do our brains. Whether you're navigating anxiety, burnout, autism, ADHD, depression, trauma, or just a general 'what-is-even-happening' vibe at work, you're not alone. 

You're exactly who this space is for. 

We support people who think, feel, or function differently in the workplace, without judgement, without pressure and without expecting perfect words. 

You bring the messy bits. We'll bring the backup. 

Where are we?

We're based in Christchurch and provide our services to the city and surrounding areas.

 

Not in the neighbourhood? No worries, we might still be able to help! Get in touch today and let’s see what we can do for you.
