Labour Law
We support companies and individuals in resolving labour law issues, ranging from everyday operational questions to complex situations. Our services cover both employers seeking to set up employment relationships correctly and employees looking to protect their rights.
Our specialists support companies in drafting and reviewing employment and executive contracts, internal policies and incentive schemes. They also assist employers with terminations, including collective redundancies, organisational changes, workplace accidents, communication with the labour inspectorate, and employee disputes, while helping to implement processes that are both legally sound and practical.
We advise individuals on starting and ending employment, negotiating terms and resolving disputes with employers. We approach every case with clarity, discretion and a focus on finding a solution tailored to the client’s specific situation.
