Leah Norman
- Advocate

Kia ora, I'm Leah, your go-to advocate for all things employment-related. Based in Christchurch, I extend my services across New Zealand.

Your Voice, Your Solution: Resolving Employment Grievances Together.

As an employment advocate, I consider it an honor to guide individuals through the intricate and sometimes overwhelming landscape of the workplace. It's a responsibility I hold dear, understanding the weight of each situation I encounter.

Few things rival the satisfaction I feel when assisting my clients. Whether it's witnessing ensuring fair treatment in their workplace or the relief that I see when a dispute is finally resolved, each success story reaffirms the importance of my role. At times, I also help clients recognise their missteps, guiding them towards accountability and resolution with their employers. In other instances, I facilitate amicable partings, where both parties can move forward with closure and mutual understanding.

My support spans a spectrum of services, from reviewing employment agreements to representing individuals in performance meetings, disciplinaries, investigations, and grievances. Each interaction presents a unique opportunity to make a positive impact.

I've witnessed firsthand the profound difference employment advocacy can make in people's lives. For many, securing employment isn't just about financial stability; it's about finding purpose and fulfillment. Guiding individuals toward this goal is not only deeply fulfilling but also a testament to the strength of human connection and support.

Being an employment advocate means being a voice for those who may otherwise go unheard. It's a role that demands compassion, unwavering dedication, and a steadfast commitment to social justice.

Ultimately, what makes being an employment advocate so rewarding is the chance to effect tangible change in people's lives. Every success story is a reminder of the significance of our work and the potential for positive transformation.
