What the Team is Known For

The employment team at DLA Piper assists prominent national and international corporates with often complex employment mandates in Spain. Temporary lay-offs and redundancy procedures are regularly handled by its team, often acting for well-known clients from the retail and hospitality sectors. DLA Piper is also highly active in contentious issues, with a particularly strong caseload relating to individual terminations. Defending sanctions proceedings and civil claims relating to workplace accidents and assisting with harassment investigations also fall within the law firm's expertise. With its strength in the labour aspects of M&A transactions and restructurings, DLA Piper complements its offering.
