As specialist for labour law, I offer you full legal service on all questions of individual and collective labour law.
Individual labour law concerns the rights and obligations of the single person.
Collective labour law concerns the rights and obligations of those who represent a group of employees, e.g. works council, representative body for disabled employees, trade union, employees' representatives in the supervisory board.

Furthermore, I answer questions concerning other fields of law as far as there is a connection to labour law, e.g. social law or tax law in case of a termination agreement or an assignment to foreign countries, company law and commercial law for managers.

I have already supported enterprises of different sizes (from a small company to a big international group of companies) and clients from different branches (e.g. chemistry, car industry, hotel and catering industry, trade/bank/insurances, communications, agency work, public sector, church sector, physicians, musicians, designer).
