Before you engage any immigration lawyer
Check the register yourself
The Law Society's Public Register of Lawyers shows whether an immigration lawyer holds a current practising certificate.
Ask for a letter of engagement
The Law Society's client care rules require how fees will be charged, and how complaints are handled, to be set out in writing before work starts.
Complaints go to the Law Society
Its Lawyers Complaints Service takes complaints about New Zealand lawyers, and your immigration lawyer must tell you how to reach it.
