Argentina > Labour and employment
Formed following the 2022 merger between blue-ribbon full-service firm Bruchou, Fernandez Madero & Lombardi and specialist labour boutique Funes De Rioja & Asociados, the Bruchou & Funes de Rioja labour and employment practice provides domestic and international clients with comprehensive labour and employment advice. An experienced team of more than 50 dedicated labour experts covers the full gamut of labour and employment law, including administrative and judicial court claims, complex litigations, mass trials, social security, collective bargaining and human resources. The practice also handles regulatory matters and the labour aspects of M&A transactions and restructurings. Stand out names on the practice’s formidable roster of experienced lawyers include individual and collective labour law expert Ignacio Funes de Rioja; the internationally-recognised Daniel Funes de Rioja; and Eduardo Viñales, who takes on a broad mix of national and international labour and employment work. Nilo Thomas covers labour due diligence and other M&A-related labour engagements, but is probably best known for representing clients in high-stakes judicial matters. Procedural specialist Pablo Barbieri, collective disputes expert Ignacio Eduardo Capurro , and Florencia Funes de Rioja, are among the other senior names on the market-leading practice’s deep bench. The merger also saw the departure of versatile labour partner Geraldine Moffat, who left the firm in November 2022; associates Luciana Abadin and Mariela Raczekowski left the same month. Since research concluded, Thomas has retired from the firm – effective as of mid-October 2023; and long-serving senior associate Lucila Tagliaferro has been raised to the partnership (March 2024).
