Employment Law

Employment relationships require the careful alignment of employee and employer interests with statutory obligations and the organisation’s internal rules.

We advise companies and individuals on the establishment, duration, and termination of employment, as well as proceedings for the protection of employment rights.

Employment affects the security of a whole family, as well as the stability of a business. We advise both employees and employers, always aiming to resolve the issue before it turns into a lengthy dispute.

Areas of Practice

• Employment contracts and related documentation
• Employer policies and general acts
• Termination of employment
• Disciplinary proceedings
• Compensation for employment-related damages
• Workplace harassment and discrimination
• Representation in labour disputes

How we approach your matter

We help employees when they receive a dismissal, when wages have not been paid or when they face pressure at work. We check whether the employer followed the required procedure and what can be claimed in court.

For employers, we prepare employment contracts, internal rules and decisions, and advise before sensitive decisions are taken, so that the procedure is lawful and the risk of a dispute is kept low.

How we work together

• Document review: we read the contract, the decision and any other papers you have.
• Assessment: we establish whether the law and the employer's internal rules were followed.
• Negotiation: we try to reach a solution without court where that is in your interest.
• Proceedings: we start a labour dispute or represent you in one already under way.

Worth knowing

Challenging a dismissal decision is subject to statutory deadlines that start running from the day the decision is delivered. Keep the decision and the envelope it arrived in, and contact us as soon as you receive it.

A properly conducted procedure protects both sides: the employee and the employer.
