Legal Advice

Do you have a legal question which needs an answer?

For example:

  • What are my rights in respect of trees on my neighbour’s property?
  • How can I ensure I am paid for goods or services I have provided?
  • Am I liable for purchases made by my spouse on our credit card even though we are separated?
  • What are my rights regarding trespassers on my property?

Most legal problems, dealt with early enough, can be resolved quickly when you speak to an experienced solicitor. As a member of First Credit Union this service is available to you.

This confidential email service is free to you, putting you in direct contact with a solicitor who can help. All legal firms providing advice to you through this service are approved members of the NZ Law Society and Legal Access Services' legal panel.

While an initial response will be provided within three working days, if the matter is complex or difficult a further five days may be required to respond in detail or escalate the query to a telephone discussion or, at the solicitor’s discretion, a free face-to-face conference.

Please be aware that further, or ongoing, advice from the responding solicitor, beyond the free contact and response provided in the scope of this service, may be subject to fees and a formal cost agreement between you and the solicitor.

Before you use the service, you should view the service disclaimer.
