Second legal opinion

Dealing effectively with problems arising from the application of the European legal order governing the posting of workers requires specialist knowledge from a wide range of branches and legal systems. We share this by balancing an in-depth assessment of the facts with the experience and practice of the courts and institutions of the Member States. Our team of lawyers and experts provide opinions only on disputes arising from the interpretation of EU law. For matters of public interest, we offer one-off free legal advice.

Intervention in cases of violations of EU law

We intervene in cases of violations of European law by social partners and institutions of host countries. A particular area of our interest is the informal administrative practices used for protectionist motives by some Member States. This happens most frequently in the field of cross-border labour mobility and labour and social security law services. Our interventions include assessing the extent of violations of European law and providing support to counteract and prevent their negative effects on employers and their employees.

Advice in proceedings before the CJEU

We draft preliminary questions in pending proceedings before the courts of the Member States of the European Union and participate as legal advisors in proceedings before the Court of Justice of the European Union. Our team of lawyers and experts has unique knowledge and experience gained through involvement in the legislative process of key legislation in the European Union institutions.
