Employment & Labor Lawyers in Regensburg

An employment lawyer in Regensburg works in a region built on manufacturing. A large car plant, automotive suppliers, semiconductor and machine building firms and the university provide most of the jobs in and around the city. Shift work, temporary agency staffing, works council rights and restructuring in the supplier industry come up again and again.

Claims are filed at the Arbeitsgericht Regensburg, which also covers much of the Upper Palatinate and Lower Bavaria. Appeals are heard by the Landesarbeitsgericht Nürnberg. Anyone who wants to fight a dismissal has three weeks after receiving the notice to go to court. When a company cuts jobs, the works council negotiates a reconciliation of interests and a social plan, and those documents often decide how much severance is paid. Agency workers have their own rules on equal pay and maximum assignment periods. Lawyers here are admitted through the Rechtsanwaltskammer Nürnberg, which keeps the register for this district. The title Fachanwalt für Arbeitsrecht shows a certified specialist.

Fees are charged under the RVG or a written fee agreement. Dismissal cases are usually valued at a quarter's gross pay. In the first instance each side pays its own lawyer, so union legal protection, IG Metall in many plants, or legal expenses insurance can be decisive. People on low incomes can apply for Prozesskostenhilfe. Take your contract, payslips, shift plans and any social plan to the first meeting with an employment lawyer in Regensburg.
