LUTZ | ABEL RECHTSANWALTS PARTG MBB's employment practice is led by Henning Abraham, who frequently leads advice on matters relating to transactions, restructuring and reorganisations, while New Work, the use of external personnel and compliance as well as management consulting represent additional practice pillars. The significance of digital transformation and New Work was underlined with Claudia Knuth's promotion to the partnership in January 2023. Thomas G.-E. Müller (employee data protection, governing bodies advice) joined GvW Graf von Westphalen in autumn 2023.
