Bereaved? choose the legal services you need

Director / lawyer from Kiwilaw

'Unbundled legal services' - including Kiwilaw's probate service - is a fancy name for 'pick and choose what you need'.
Just like in a supermarket, or when buying travel - you don't have to buy a readymade meal if you prefer to buy ingredients, and you don't have to do everything through a travel agent if you prefer to do some of it yourself online.
You can use Kiwilaw's online probate service to save money on the grant of probate, and still use your favourite lawyer for advice and help with the rest of the estate administration. Our standard fee: $490 incl GST (+High Court $200 fee).
If the executor doesn't want to act, or there's no will, Kiwilaw's service can handle that too.
(This is our junior collie, pointing out that trying to take a photo of a pile of law books - for our nearly-ready 'Guide to Estate Administration' - was a waste of good play time.)

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?

Poll: As a customer, what do you think about automation?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Press investigates the growing reliance on your unpaid labour.

Automation (or the “unpaid shift”) is often described as efficient ... but it tends to benefit employers more than consumers.

We want to know: What do you think about automation?
Are you for, or against?
