Dismissal
One of Asscher Arbeidsrecht’s key focus areas is dismissal law: from negotiation to litigation. Asscher Arbeidsrecht has extensive experience with reorganisations (including collective dismissals), dismissals based on personal grounds (underperformance / disrupted working relationships), summary dismissals, and the dismissal of statutory directors.
Non-compete clause
A non-compete clause is sometimes a necessary evil, but often leads to disputes. Floris Asscher has extensive experience in advising and litigating on non-compete clauses, non-solicitation clauses and confidentiality clauses.
Employee participation
The lawyers at Asscher Arbeidsrecht have extensive experience in employee participation matters: from establishing a works council to advisory and approval procedures. We advise both employers and works councils.
Pension law
Sophia Zandvoort-Faneyte is affiliated with a pension fund and has extensive experience in advising and litigating pension law matters. Her leading case against Aon (link) provided important clarity regarding amendments to pension agreements. This landmark ruling is something employers must take into account when amending employment agreements in the context of the Future of Pensions Act (Wtp).
