Employment

Julie Caussade is a Partner and co-Head of Dentons' Employment Law group in Paris.

She regularly advises her clients on a wide range of issues related notably to the creation and implementation of their French subsidiaries as well as during the various stages of growth of these entities. Julie also assists in the more sensitive phases of the corporate life cycle, such as the implementation of turnaround, restructuring or bankruptcy plans.

She advises clients operating around the world in the context of secondment procedures to France and expatriation processes from France. In addition, Julie assists her clients in areas of criminal labor law, for instance, during inspections by the French authorities concerning the fight against concealed work.

She also advises clients in their negotiations of collective agreements with work councils or unions. She represents her clients before the courts in both individual litigation (relating to dismissal, harassment, discrimination claims) or collective litigation (profit-sharing, strikes, job safeguard plans…).

Julie's clients range from start-ups to medium-sized companies and large French and international groups and include major players in sectors as diverse as hospitality, retail, banking, technology and other industries.

Finally, Julie works closely with Dentons' various practice groups, both in France and around the world, and in particular with the Corporate M&A group in the context of audits or restructuring operations.

In addition, Julie co-coordinates the Pro Bono initiative of Dentons’ Paris office and works pro bono for various associations.
