Angelika Pallwein-PrettnerBinder Grösswang

Providing an ‘excellent level of service’, Binder Grösswang‘s ‘very well-established employment practice’ is especially recommended for advising on mass redundancies, social plan negotiations, terminations, and management changes, with clients regularly instructing the team to handle issues in the finance and manufacturing sectors. The team is jointly steered by Horst Lukanec and Angelika Pallwein-Prettner: Lukanec offers particular experience with employment matters in the context of corporate restructurings and regularly represents clients in contentious proceedings, while Pallwein-Prettner chiefly handles matters at the intersection of data protection and employment law. Sabine Apfl-Trompeter covers employment aspects of M&A and also regularly advises on redundancies.

Austria > Data privacy and data protection

A key pillar of Binder Grösswang‘s data protection practice lies in new technologies, where the firm advises on digitalisation processes and e-commerce matters. On both fronts the team has experience in acting for clients ranging from startups to multinationals on contentious proceedings before Austria’s data protection authority as well as advisory matters, including compliance with regulatory regimes. The team is led by Ivo Rungg, whose practice covers the digital sector, and Angelika Pallwein-Prettner, who advises employers on data protection and privacy compliance.
