Roland Gerlach's specialization covers every conceivable employment law problem in judicial and extrajudicial advice and representation. In addition to large and medium-sized companies, his clients primarily include managing directors, board members and large works councils. Decades of presence in international networks, at international conferences (as a speaker and listener) and as Austria's representative on the board of the European Employment Lawyers Association have enabled him to build up a wide network of first-class international law firms, which also guarantees the highest quality of advice and representation in cross-border matters. His specialization in company pension scheme issues also ensures that his area of practice does not end with the termination of the employment relationship.
Roland Gerlach has done everything you would expect from a highly specialized employment lawyer. He has published, lectured in Austria and internationally, negotiated contracts, works agreements, collective agreements, represented large and small cases in court, dealt with labour law problems on the executive committee of the Vienna Bar Association, represented Austria in the European Labor Law Association and his firm has trained many lawyers, who are today themselves successful employment lawyers.

Roland Gerlach's specialization began at ski lodges, where employment law seminars were held at the time, which made them much more attractive than other courses. In the meantime, 40 years have passed and his loyalty to employment law (and skiing) has remained.
