Who pays if I lose a case in New Zealand?

Costs usually follow the event and are generally assessed on a court scale designed to cover a portion of reasonable costs, not the full fees. A conditional fee agreement with your own lawyer does not cover the other side's costs, so ask your lawyer who carries that risk if you lose.
