A defence grounded in the company’s records
CSB Avocats represents corporate clients in employment disputes. The firm works with management, legal and human resources teams to assess claims brought by employees, former employees or employee representatives.
The work begins with the chronology and collection of relevant records. The firm tests allegations against the decisions taken, retained correspondence and applicable rules. It identifies points of defence, missing evidence and matters requiring further investigation.
Individual and collective disputes
The practice covers dismissal challenges, remuneration claims, working time and annual working days disputes, as well as harassment, discrimination and workplace health matters.
It also addresses disputes concerning employee representation, collective relations and reorganisation measures. The appropriate court and procedure are determined by the nature of the claim.
Proceedings and the decision to negotiate
The firm prepares written submissions, organises evidence and represents the company before French employment tribunals and Courts of Appeal. It assesses urgent applications, evidence-gathering measures and appeal options as required.
Discussions with opposing counsel are based on an assessment of litigation exposure and the company’s objectives. Any negotiation is coordinated with operational constraints and the internal decisions needed to reach an agreement.
