Well-regarded for its ability to marry ‘excellent technical knowledge’ with a ’client-oriented’ approach, the employment group at DLA Piper ABBC covers both transactional employment matters and standalone advisory services. Esteemed as trusted advisers to blue-chip international companies, the team excels in managing complex issues such as collective bargaining agreements, redundancies, employee transfers, and business reorganisations. Benjamim Mendes focuses on individual and mass dismissal procedures, collective bargaining agreements, lay-off procedures and contentious employment matters. Catarina Santos Ferreira is lauded as an ‘extremely professional’ individual who possesses ’remarkable know-how.’ João Guedes advises on the labour law implications of M&A deals, and Sara Leitão regularly assists companies with day-to-day advice.
