Employment law
Preventive employment counsel and representation in labor proceedings, primarily on the employer side.
How we approach this service
In Costa Rica, labor law demands careful attention, especially on the employer side. Our approach is preventive: when a company consults us before a problem escalates, we can help it avoid costly disputes. When the dispute is already here, we handle it with order and realism. We advise small and mid-sized companies and employers that need to structure internal regulations, contracts and personnel policies.
