    Labor & Employment Law

    With a global footprint, we can service your labor and employment advice needs wherever your operations may be, and whatever your line of business. Our lawyers can help you to steer a safe course through the issues, from the smallest day-to-day local queries to the largest international restructurings, negotiations and disputes.

    The Labor & Employment Practice Group is one of the largest global labor and employment practices in the world with lawyers located in offices throughout Europe, Asia Pacific, the US and Latin America.  We operate as a cohesive whole, mirroring the “one-firm firm” approach of our firm as we aim to support our clients across as many jurisdictions as they need, applying a consistent quality management regime and procuring the highest levels of coordination.
