Navigate dismissals, redundancies, and workplace conflicts with precision under German labour law — avoiding costly tribunal proceedings and reputational damage.
Get Started
Dismissals, redundancies, and workplace conflicts can bring operations to a standstill when German labour law enters the picture. The Kündigungsschutzgesetz, works council obligations, and strict procedural requirements leave little room for error.
One misstep in an employee termination or a poorly worded clause in an employment agreement can expose your business to costly tribunal proceedings and reputational damage. German employment law rewards preparation and punishes improvisation.
Yes. LegaLig advises on individual employment matters — such as contracts, terminations, and disciplinary procedures — as well as collective employment law topics, including works council obligations and compliance.
Absolutely. Foreign businesses operating in Germany are subject to German employment law in full, regardless of where their headquarters are based. LegaLig regularly advises international companies on compliance and risk management.
As early as possible — ideally before any communication is made to the employee. German dismissal protection law imposes strict procedural requirements, and errors made in the early stages can invalidate the entire termination.
Employment law in Germany operates under statutory rules, collective agreements, and Bundesarbeitsgericht case law that requires specialist knowledge.
Most employment disputes trace back to ambiguous contracts. LegaLig reviews and strengthens employment agreements before problems emerge.
Terminating an employee requires works council consultation, notice periods, substantiation, and documentation that holds up in tribunal.
We advise on both individual matters — contracts, terminations, discipline — and collective issues including works council obligations.
International businesses operating in Germany are subject to full German employment law. LegaLig regularly advises global companies.
