Allende & Brea supports clients from a wide range of sectors with a comprehensive labour offering that spans labour M&A due diligence, remote working and internet use policies, furloughs and terminations, and immigration. As a member of the L&E Global labour alliance, the practice is particularly well placed to handle cross-border work that requires the capacity to pull together evidence and documentation from multiple jurisdictions. The ‘exceptional’ Nicolás Grandi leads the practice and handles a broad mix of labour work, including employee transfers, complex labour litigation, M&A deals, terminations and settlement negotiations. At associate level, Agustina Faretta (who has expertise in union issues and labour litigation); Lía D’Aloisio (who focuses on litigation and union work); and Lucas Tamagno (who provides the full range of employment advice for local clients) are the main points of contact.
