Eversheds Sutherland is as convincing in its advice on restructuring and reorganisation, including staff reductions and associated negotiations on reconciliation of interests and social plans, as it is in its ongoing employment assistance. Mainstays here include corporate co-determination, works constitution law, the introduction of new remuneration models and collective bargaining law. Frank Achilles, who routinely supports business transfers and transactions, heads the team, which also includes Merle Templin (mobile work, time recording and litigation representation), who made partner in May 2024.
