DLA Piper's employment team is dedicated to collective law advice and regularly handles transactions, restructurings and reorganisations as well as outsourcing and compliance matters, including related internal investigations. Henriette Norda (restructuring and reorganisations) heads the team, which includes senior counsel Hans-Peter Löw, who is experienced in advising companies in the financial services sector. The group boosted its company pension scheme expertise with the arrival of Christian Freiherr von Buddenbrock and counsel Jörn Manhart from ADVANT Beiten in spring 2024.
