Citizens Advice Bureau
All major towns in New Zealand have a Citizens Advice Bureau (CAB). These provide free information and assistance on matters such as the law, translation services, social welfare, health, education, housing, budgeting, employment rights, consumer rights and personal and family issues. The service is confidential and anyone can use it - you do not need to be a New Zealand citizen. Freephone: 0800 367 222 (0800 FOR CAB).
Community Law Centres
Community Law Centres offer free legal advice and information (but usually not on business problems or buying or selling houses). Your local Citizens Advice Bureau can provide details.
