We cover a broad spectrum of employment law work, with particular emphasis on maritime matters. We aim to offer sensible, straightforward advice and, wherever possible, help clients take pre-emptive action to avoid many of the common pitfalls faced when drawing up employment contracts or dealing with disputes.

The areas of specialism we have developed include, but are not limited to, the following:-

• Merchant seamen's crew contracts
• Yacht crew contracts
• Fishermen's contracts of employment and share agreements
• Other types of employment contract
• Redundancy
• Compromise agreements
• Health & Safety
• Restrictive covenants
• Dismissal
• Transfer of undertakings
• Alternative Dispute Resolution – mediation service

Our Geneva office also deals with employment law of a more international flavour, bringing an extra dimension to our understanding of employment issues.
