Labour Relations

We advice companies and individuals on all aspects of employment and labor laws for both state and central laws including terms and conditions contained in employment contracts, laws relating to termination of employment, retrenchment and transfer of employment, compensation and other remedies for the breach of employment contract and wrongful dismissal cases. We advice on trade union matters, industrial relations and industrial disputes.

Our Counsels work on a wide range of labor and employment matters, including matters requiring immediate relief, litigation or alternative dispute resolution, and thoughtful counseling on policies and practices designed to reduce the risk of disputes.
