Collective and individual agreements, Work Regulations, Plans, Policies and Other Documents
We draft accurate customised documents for your company.
Our knowledge database contains standards and precedents enabling us to produce or turn around drafts quickly and efficiently.
Negotiation and Mediation
We assist clients in negotiating individual or collective labor conflicts, either directly with the lawyers or trade unions of the other side, or sometimes with the help of an external mediator.
Litigation and arbitration
Lawyers of our firm appear in the 27 labor courts and 5 labor courts of appeal almost every day. For clients who have a number of cases ongoing, we organise a litigation management and reporting system.
Budget Calculations
We prepare budgets for individual and collective dismissals taking into account the practice of the labour courts and trade union negotiations. We also calculate applicable taxes and social security contributions.
Our database allows us to provide cost simulations with the highest possible degree of accuracy.
"First Aid Kits"
We have first-aid kits for individual and collective dismissals and for starting operations in Belgium, which will provide you within a very short time frame an idea of cost, procedure, timing, and generally how to go about it.
In-house Training
We give training on-site to clients on all relevant topics in our practice areas. We provide customised training for work councils, pension funds, board of directors or other specific groups.
Webinar and Conference Call Training
We give training to clients by webinar or conference call on all relevant topics in our practice areas. We provide both introductory training sessions on general topics or tailor-made sessions on specific subjects relevant to our clients.
From time to time, we also organise free webinars, open to all our clients, on recent legal developments in our practice areas.
