Would you like to have your employment contract reviewed?

A contract review protects you from unexpected risks and safeguards your rights. We analyze your employment contract to identify unfavorable clauses and ensure that all provisions comply with legal requirements. This enables you to avoid disputes and make well-informed decisions.

Do you plan to give notice of dismissal?

Terminations require compliance with formal requirements, such as deadlines and clear reasons. We advise you on how to ensure a legally sound termination and avoid unnecessary conflicts. So you remain legally protected.

Do you want to dissolve an employment relationship by mutual consent?

Amicable terminations should be recorded in a termination agreement that regulates all important points, such as severance payments and leave of absence. We ensure that your interests are safeguarded and future claims are excluded.

When can you dismiss someone without notice?

Terminations without notice are only permissible in the event of serious breaches of duty. These must be justified immediately and comprehensibly. We advise you to ensure that such a measure is legally valid.

How can I defend myself against wrongful dismissal?

In the event of an abusive termination, you can claim compensation. You must lodge a written objection during the notice period and claim the compensation in court within 180 days. We will check your chances and support you in successfully asserting your rights.

How do I formulate an employment reference?

An employer's reference must be true and favorably worded so as not to harm the employee. We help you to create a legally correct reference that appropriately reflects the performance and meets legal standards.

What must be observed during a smouldering conflict in the workplace?

Workplace conflicts should be resolved at an early stage to prevent escalation. Mediation can help to find sustainable solutions. We advise you on your rights and obligations and support you during negotiations.

Do overtime hours have to be paid out or compensated?

Unless otherwise agreed in writing, overtime must either be paid or compensated by time off in lieu. We will check your claim and support you in asserting your rights.

What are the main things to remember for temporary recruitment?

Staff leasing is subject to strict regulations, including licensing requirements and minimum working conditions. We help you to comply with the legal requirements and provide you with comprehensive advice on your rights as a hirer or lender.

Was the post-contractual non-competition clause concluded properly?

A post-contractual non-competition clause is only valid if it is appropriately agreed and justified in writing. It must comply with the legal requirements and must not excessively restrict the employee. We will review your agreement.

Must the bonus also be paid for a terminated employment relationship?

Whether a bonus is due in the terminated employment relationship depends on the contractual provisions. If the bonus is part of your salary, you are often entitled to it. We clarify your rights and help you enforce them.

What does release from duties mean?

In the case of a leave of absence, the employee is released from the obligation to work but continues to receive their salary. A leave of absence can be revocable or irrevocable and is often used to bridge the notice period. We can advise you on your rights.
