Employment Law
We assist employers and employees throughout the entire lifecycle of the employment relationship. We draft and review employment contracts, prepare amendments, and handle termination of employment (including during the probationary period, by agreement, or extraordinary termination). We advise on redundancies and severance pay and represent clients before the Labour Dispute Committee and in court.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
1
Employment Contract and Work Organisation
Together, we determine whether to use an employment contract or a contract for services
in order to avoid the risks of a concealed employment relationship. We define the
probationary period, job duties, responsibility, remote work arrangements, and flexible
working time rules. When circumstances change, we formalize amendments to the
employment contract by way of an annex so that the changes are enforceable and legally
secure.
What we typically do:
• drafting employment contracts and contract amendments
• probationary period clauses, training costs, roles and responsibilities
• work organization: remote work, employer assets
2
Termination of Employment and Redundancy
We explain all methods of termination: termination of an employment contract during the
probationary period, termination by mutual agreement or at the employee’s own initiative,
and extraordinary termination. In redundancy cases, we conduct the procedure, prepare
notices, and verify compliance with the obligation to offer alternative work. We monitor
formal requirements and statutory deadlines to significantly reduce dispute risk.
What we typically do:
• drafting termination notices and notifications (deadlines)
• extraordinary termination by employer or employee, including evidence
• redundancy: selection criteria, obligation to offer work, severance pay
3
Labour Disputes and Representation
We prepare applications to the Labour Dispute Committee, collect evidence, and conduct
negotiations. If necessary, we take disputes to court by drafting claims, responses, and
appeals. Our labour law attorney manages the process while keeping costs and deadlines
under control and seeking reasonable settlements where possible.
What we typically do:
• Labour Dispute Committee: applications, evidence plans, representation at hearings
• settlement agreements and negotiations
• claims, responses, appeals
4
Non-Competition Agreements, NDAs and Disciplinary Proceedings
We draft non-competition agreements, defining scope, duration, and territory, as well as
compensation for the restriction. We prepare non-disclosure agreements (NDAs), organise
warnings and disciplinary sanctions, and, where necessary, conclude agreements on
material liability. We advise on evidence collection and proportionate handling of breaches.
What we typically do:
• non-competition agreements and compensation logic; employee NDAs
• warnings and disciplinary procedures
• agreements on material liability and damage compensation
