Review CR Law's client service agreement. Understanding our service standards, communication commitments, and client care protocols. 移民事务 Welcome to CR Law We are pleased to assist you. These terms and conditions of business together with our engagement letter or the covering email to which this is attached (as applicable) constitutes the basis upon which we agree to provide you with professional legal services (Client Service Agreement). Please read this document carefully. The engagement letter or the covering email (as applicable) prevails to extent of any inconsistency with these terms and conditions. “CR Law” or “We” means the law partnership trading as CR Law and as Cooper Rapley and includes partners, employed lawyers and staff. You are our client 1. Our letter of engagement or the covering email to which these terms of business are attached (as applicable), sets out the scope of our representation and identifies you as our sole client. We do not represent any other persons or entities, including your parent, subsidiaries and affiliates, unless named in the engagement letter. Our advice and work is provided solely for your benefit and relates only to the matters set out in the engagement letter. Group entities 2. The Client Service Agreement describes the basis on which you engage us either on your own behalf or on behalf of any companies, organisations or entities that you control. Acting for more than one of you 3. If we are acting for more than one person or entity on your matters, you agree that we can accept instructions from any of you, unless agreed otherwise. 4. We may terminate the Client Service Agreement where, in our opinion, there is or may be a conflict of interest between any of you, or if we would otherwise be obliged to act in a manner contrary to the interests of one of you. 5. By entering into the Client Service Agreement, you each agree to immediately notify us if there is any dispute or a conflict of interest which arises between you while we act for you. 6. Your liability to us under our Client Service Agreement is joint and several. You may request us to apportion any invoice between you, but this will not affect your joint and several liability to us. If you are a trustee 7. We do not act for, nor are we liable to, any beneficiaries of any trust. 8. By instructing us, you confirm that you have full power and authority to enter into the Client Service Agreement and to instruct us in your matters on an ongoing basis from the date you instruct us, until the file is closed. What CR Law promises you 9. CR Law’s first duty is to uphold the rule of law. Our lawyers owe overriding duties to New Zealand Courts. 10. CR Law promises you to: act competently, in a timely way, and in accordance with instructions received and arrangements made; protect and promote your interests and act for you free from compromising influences or loyalties; discuss with you your objectives and how they can best be achieved; provide you with information about the work to be done, who will do it and the way the services will be provided; charge you a fee that is fair and reasonable and let you know how and when you will be billed; give you clear information and advice; protect your privacy and ensure appropriate confidentiality; treat you fairly, respectfully and without discrimination; keep you informed about the work being done and advise you when it is completed; and let you know how to make a complaint and deal with any complaint promptly and fairly. 11. CR Law is not qualified to give you investment advice. You should get that advice from a qualified financial advisor. Whether or not a transaction meets your financial objectives or not is a matter for you to decide and CR Law does not offer advice on the financial wisdom of a transaction or whether it meets your financial objectives. Unless tax advice is expressly offered any tax implications of any transaction must be determined by you in consultation with your accountant. 12. CR Law has procedures in place to identify and respond to conflicts of interest. If a conflict of interest arises we will advise you of this and follow the requirements and procedures set out in the Law Society’s Rules of Conduct and Client Care for Lawyers. 13. CR Law holds professional indemnity insurance that meets or exceeds the minimum standards specified by the New Zealand Law Society under the Lawyers and Conveyancers Act (Conveyancers Registration and Practice) Regulations 2008. 14. CR Law maintains a procedure for handling any complaints by clients, designed to ensure that a complaint is dealt with promptly and fairly. If you have a complaint about our services or charges, you may refer your complaint to the person in our firm who has overall responsibility for your work. If you do not wish to refer your complaint to that person, or you are not satisfied with that person’s response to your complaint, you may refer your complaint to the General Manager. The General Manager may be contacted as follows by: letter; email at law@crlaw.co.nz ; telephoning at (06) 353 5210 . The Law Society also maintains a complaints service and you are able to make a complaint to that service. To do so you should contact: The Lawyers Complaints Service Telephone: 0800 261 801 Email: complaints@lawsociety.org.nz Website: www.lawsociety.org.nz/for-the-community/lawyers-complaints-service/concerns-form Fees, expenses and disbursements 15. CR Law will charge fair and reasonable fee calculated based on a range of factors approved by the New Zealand Law Society. These factors are, the: time and labour expended; skill, specialised knowledge and responsibility required; importance of the matter and the result achieved; urgency; complexity or novelty of the questions involved; experience, reputation and ability of the lawyer requested by the client; reasonable costs of running a practice; and fee customarily charged in the locality for a similar level of service. All these factors will be considered in setting a fair and reasonable fee for our legal services. In relation to the first factor, time will be recorded on a time expended basis. You are entitled to request an estimate of our fees and charge out rates. We charge a sundry fee of 2.5% of fees to cover office expenses. AML costs incurred will be charged separately. 16. In providing services we may incur disbursements or have to make payments to third parties on your behalf. Examples are Court filing fees, Landonline charges, registration charges or accommodation and travel expenses. These will be included in our invoice to you when the expense is incurred. You authorise us to incur these disbursements without seeking your prior approval. We may require an advance payment for the disbursements or expenses which we will be incurring on your behalf. 17. Other than transactional matters where the fees and expenses are payable on settlement date, our accounts are payable within 14 days following the date of the invoice. We may require an advance payment of our anticipated fees, or to provide security for our fees and expenses. For longer term matters, interim invoices will be rendered every three months. Interest may be charged on any amount which is more than 1 month overdue. Interest will be calculated at the rate of 15% per annum calculated daily. If any account is not paid on time we may decide not to carry out further work or incur further disbursements. If we hold your money in our trust account and we have rendered an invoice to you, you irrevocably direct that we may deduct our fees and disbursements from the money held in our trust account. Acceptable methods of payment are: Direct Credit (this is the preferred method of payment); Cash/Eftpos payments; and Credit cards (Master Card or Visa only are accepted). 18. If you are in default of payment and recovery action is commenced, you will be required to pay all costs and expenses if recovery action is necessary to recover from you, any overdue amount. GST is payable by you on our fees and charges including late payment interest. Electronic Communications 19. By entering into this Client Service Agreement, you: • consent to CR Law communicating with you or on your behalf using electronic means including the issue of this Client Service Agreement, invoices and any subsequent engagement letters; and release CR Law from liability for any loss you may incur if an electronic communication is intercepted, corrupted, delayed, not received, copied or viewed by someone other than the intended recipient, or if a document that we prepare on your behalf and send to you electronically is altered by you without our prior written authority. 20.

If required by law, we will report to a regulatory authority our knowledge or suspicion that certain criminal offences have been committed, regardless of whether you as our client or a third party committed the offence.
