Clifford Chance

Lauded for its ‘extremely innovative and client-focused thinking’, the employment team at Clifford Chance specialises in strategic and business-critical matters for both domestic and international clients, often in highly regulated sectors. Its areas of expertise include large-scale restructurings and downsizings, industrial relations, and cross-border matters. Collective downsizings and outsourcing transactions are key elements of team head Gert Cuppens’ practice, which also covers the hiring and dismissal of senior executives, pensions, and employee benefits.
