Friedrich Graf von Westphalen & Partner

The team at Friedrich Graf von Westphalen & Partner is equally skilled in complex management disputes, and a range of employment disputes before authorities, as it is in restructuring and negotiations with works councils. The team is widely recognised for its strategic advice on outsourcing and restructuring measures, a core strength of the practice. Clients frequently turn to practice head Stefan Daub for guidance on major restructuring projects, reflecting his reputation in this area. Stephanie Mayer is a key contact for negotiations with trade unions, particularly in matters involving reconciliation of interests, social plans, plant closures, and workforce reductions. Meanwhile, firm managing partner Sabine Schröter leads the employment practice from the Frankfurt office, ensuring seamless coordination across the firm’s employment law offerings.
