About

Provided by Jeantet

Jeantet supports French and foreign companies in all issues concerning labour law, offering both advice and litigation support.

Our team is, above all, recognised for its expertise and experience in the social management of business restructuring processes. We regularly deal with the most complex legal issues in this field with one single purpose: to secure restructuring plans for solvent companies or in collective proceedings.

Our know-how enables us to combine high responsiveness with a pragmatic approach to the cases entrusted to us. We always ensure we adapt our approach to our clients’ strategic challenges.

To this end, we support companies at every stage in the management of their working relationships and particularly in the implementation of individual contracts and collective agreements, negotiations with staff representative bodies and social partners and in the preparation, negotiation and operational implementation of employment protection plans. We also represent our clients in collective and individual litigation concerning risk, management of strikes, as well as in criminal liability claims against directors due to workplace accidents, industrial disasters and product-related liability.
