Labour and employment

Miranda & Amado

Particularly noted for handling complex collective bargaining processes, Miranda & Amado's 14-strong labour and employment practice advises clients on a range of employment matters, including labour compliance audits and challenges related to dismissals, to claims for damages, and reviews of salary policies and structures. The leadership of the team is shared by Carlos Cadillo and Eric Castro, both widely acknowledged for their expertise in individual and collective bargaining, labour arbitration, health and safety regulations at work, and inspection procedures. Raised to the partnership in January 2024, Luis Santa-Cruz has developed a broad practice that includes collective bargaining, labour administrative proceedings, and health and safety matters—areas where counsel Fernando Rodríguez and experienced senior associate Aracelli Morales also excel. Fellow senior Carol Villalobos is highly recommended for her focus on immigration and social security matters.
