At Hogan Lovells, we understand employment issues are about more than knowing the law. They’re about knowing your business and knowing your people. That’s why, according to Chambers and Partners, our "combination of technical expertise and interpersonal skills… builds trust and confidence."
While litigation of disputes is generally a solution of last resort, our record of success in court and arbitration is unrivalled. And whether you're facing issues in one country or in 20, we’re here to help.
Our top-ranked global team advises and guides clients like you on all types of employment challenges and opportunities, wherever they occur. We understand the business sensitivities that surround each matter, and work to foresee and avert complications. We help you make informed decisions that minimize workplace risk, and, ultimately, find solutions that work.
Our employment lawyers:
- advise and defend companies in litigation or arbitration
- help develop and implement best practices
- negotiate with unions or work councils
- deal with executive compensation arrangements
- arrange orderly separations
- protect your company and ensure you have, and properly implement, the best workplace policies
- talk with clients in clear and straightforward terms
