Being reliable, quick - and creative. That is what is so crucial in employment law matters, whether when advising a client, in negotiations or in cases that go to a tribunal. And that is what the labor and employment lawyers at Friedrich Graf von Westphalen & Partner stand for.

We develop solutions together with you, working jointly and creatively. We are by your side every step of the way and with every issue - no matter whether it involves individual or collective labor and employment law: From preparing employment contracts to advising on an existing employment relationship, drawing up a concept for, and implementing, working time and remuneration models, any question on reorganization and restructuring measures, in negotiations with the works council or the employees' representatives, especially negotiations about, and the conclusion of, a reconciliation of interests ("Interessenausgleich"), social redundancy scheme ("Sozialplan") and the agreement on a job-creation company through to the termination of employment relationships. Inextricably linked with this, we also represent you in litigation, in all kinds of court action, for example actions for unfair dismissal, cases before boards of conciliation and in relation to authorities or governmental agencies.

In so doing we advise employers, employees as well as, of course, senior executives, board members, freelance staff and independent service providers.
