We support employees and employers in all aspects of employment law, including organisational and social security matters.

Employment
  • Advising employees

    Our employment attorneys provide you with comprehensive support and advice in employment law matters. This applies in particular to situations in which you are challenging a termination without notice or ordinary termination, asserting employment law claims for salary, seeking the issuance of a work certificate, enforcing data protection guarantees and resolving insurance law issues (accidents, illness, parental rights).

  • Advising employers

    Our law firm supports you on questions regarding the correct application of the law in connection with employment relationships under civil law. We prepare legal opinions on selected questions, advise on questions of employment certificates or on the right course of action in the case of ordinary termination or termination without notice, as well as in cases of mass redundancies or transfers of a business. We are also pleased to assist you in matters relating to insurance or data protection law.

  • Employment agreements and work models

    Our employment law specialists will support you in drafting and reviewing employment agreements and internal policies (expense reimbursement policy, HR policy, company directives, etc.) and will also advise you on implementing employee remuneration models, crafting working time models suited to the modern workplace, structuring non-compete clauses and dealing with matters of social insurance law (accidents, illness, parental rights).

  • Relocations and work authorisations

    Our law firm will be pleased to provide you with support in all matters relating to establishing your company in Switzerland and in the event of a change of canton. Our experienced attorneys also advise private individuals with a view to relocation to Switzerland and with regard to the necessary work authorisations. For more information, please refer to Relocations and settlement.

  • Extrajudicial and in court representation

    We will support and represent you in all matters of employment law, both in out-of-court negotiations and settlement negotiations and in legal disputes before the cantonal conciliation boards for employment law disputes, the employment courts, the commercial courts or the courts of appeal, both within the canton of Lucerne and throughout Switzerland.
