BLP

Client Satisfaction

BLP's strong presence in Central America makes its ‘100% capable’ labour and employment team a go-to for regional and multinational clients spanning the retail, banking, BPO, and food and beverages sectors, among others. The group is well versed in advising on the labour aspects of corporate matters, including performing labour due diligence, assisting with employee relocations and handling the mass dismissal of employees following the closure of clients’ local operations. Labour disputes also form a key pillar of the practice. At the head of the team, Adolfo Pineda is a frequent adviser to international clients on recruitment, employment contracts and immigration matters. The talented line-up of junior lawyers includes senior associates Jorge Kafati and Cynthia Chavarría (who is based in San Pedro Sula).
