Disputes & Litigation

Labour Cases

We represent employees and employers in labour disputes: wages, end-of-service benefits, dismissal and compensation, from amicable settlement to the labour courts.

Why work with a specialist?

A labour case starts with amicable settlement before litigation, and the documents and claims submitted at that stage shape the whole case. For employers, well-drafted contracts and work rules are the best protection against disputes.

Who is this service for?

  • Employees with unpaid wages or benefits.
  • Employees dismissed in a way they consider unlawful.
  • Employers facing labour claims.
  • Businesses that want their contracts and work rules reviewed.

Frequently asked questions

Must I go through amicable settlement before court?

A labour dispute usually goes through an amicable settlement stage and, if no agreement is reached, is referred to the labour court.

What should I bring for my labour case?

The contract, payslips, correspondence, any termination letter and documents proving what you are owed.

Is there a time limit for labour claims?

Yes. The Labour Law sets a period after which a labour claim is no longer accepted, so do not delay.
