Advice for employers, executives and employees
We represent both employers and employees. Whether you are a company seeking to terminate an employment relationship lawfully, an executive negotiating a severance package, or an employee facing dismissal – our certified specialists will guide you through German employment law with a clear, result-oriented approach.
We aim to resolve disputes out of court whenever possible. If litigation becomes necessary, we represent clients before all German labour courts, regional labour courts and the Federal Labour Court.
