Co-founded in April 2024 by former CMS Carey & Allende (CMS) partners, A/C/R Legal is ‘phenomenal at its job’. The five-strong employment and pensions team advises on a range of matters, including day-to-day advice on contracts, pay and compliance, as well as international employees’ visas and immigration requirements. The group houses specialists in redundancy programmes, senior employee dismissals, union relations, collective bargaining, investigations, litigation, and health and safety issues. Practice head and former CMS partner, Enzo Canales, focuses on labour compliance, collective bargaining, labour litigation, expatriates and social security. In the associate team, the workload of senior Rafael Muñoz encompasses collective bargaining, union relations, immigration, and administrative and judicial proceedings involving workplace-related accidents and occupational diseases; while Dehin Vargas’ broad practice includes labour lawsuits, dismissals, collective bargaining, and M&A-related due diligence.
