Employment & Labor

Labor law

Do you want to suspend or fire an employee? Do you have questions about an employment contract? Or has your employee started working for a competitor and does he have a non-competition clause? We like to think along with you! Everyone who concludes an employment contract has to deal with employment law. As an employer, you may be faced with an employment law conflict. The interests of the parties can run high in this case. Think about topics such as:

procedures

- dismissal (individual and collective)
- dissolution of employment contract
- severance payment
- supervision of application for dismissal (CWI)
- wage claim
- non-competition clause

Advices

- employment contract
- on-call contract
- personnel regulations and handbook

Bankruptcy & Debt

Bankruptcy law

Can you no longer meet your obligations? Do you want a deferment of payment because you are temporarily unable to pay your debts? Or do you want to file for bankruptcy of a company or your own company? We like to think along with you!

Timely action is necessary

You may be faced with debts or bankruptcy of a third party. A company or person that has ceased to pay its debts can be declared bankrupt by the court at its own request or at the request of one or more creditors. Once the bankruptcy has been declared, only the appointed trustee can dispose of the property and funds of the bankrupt.
