Best of both worlds: legal expertise and practical experience
Excellent legal knowledge is the basis of our legal advice. We have each acquired legal know-how at the highest level from our long experience in prominent international major law firms. From experience we have learned that, in Labour Law, it is a great advantage to know what goes on behind the scene. Directly from within companies, we have that practical knowledge from daily work as in-house lawyers. We therefore view the background and financial realities of your concerns through the filter of practicality. We provide workable answers and practical recommendations for action. We are not theorists but advisors for the real world of practice.

Our in-house experience: your benefit
Advising employers day-to-day on all aspects of Labour Law is our specialty. From our work in international group structures, we have wide-ranging in-house experience – whether advising the management on strategic questions and policy decisions, advising the human resources and specialist departments or as strong negotiating partner vis-à-vis works councils and trade unions. Our approach is therefore necessarily strongly commercial and strategic. Commercial thinking, not only in projects but in all Labour Law situations, is one of our outstanding features.

Advising employers and employees: a change of perspective improves quality
We mainly advise employers. But we also represent corporate bodies, managers and “non-management/executive employees. We do not see that as a contradiction, we do not think in boxes. On the contrary, by advising both employers and employees we know the interests, the strengths and weaknesses of both sides. We can use that knowledge, depending on the case and the negotiation situation, precisely to your advantage. Regular changes of perspective improve quality. We can often be, therefore, a step ahead of the opponent and so achieve the optimal result for you.

We avoid long and expensive litigation: your objective has priority
For us, your interests are always paramount – on every issue and in every negotiation situation. If necessary, of course we enforce your interests in court. We have extensive litigation experience, the necessary negotiation skills and stamina to fight even complex litigation situations. Court proceedings may not always be the best way. Litigation costs time, money, energy and absorbs capacity. We therefore always carefully consider when court action is appropriate and when it should be avoided from the outset. On the long view and with the right strategy, conflicts may often be diffused or “nipped in the bud”. An out-of-court agreement may be a satisfactory outcome for you and, consequently, financially more advantageous than expensive and long-drawn-out litigation.
