Noerr is a leading destination for employment restructuring advice, which is a staple element of the employment and pensions group, made up of lawyers who often act within the context of a cross-border transaction. The regulatory arm of the practice extends to the implementation of company measures from an employment law and company law perspective, a stand-out choice for providing cross-border advice to companies regarding global mobility with the increase in remote working, and board matters reaching Federal Labour Court. Andreas Butz and Benjamin Jahn head up the team, the former of whom is adept in restructuring and reorganisations, while Jahn is key for insolvency employment law. Elsewhere in the team, Yannick Bähn is an important contact in the team for reorganisations.
