Work permits and International employee assignments

In our global society based on the principle of division of labor, the international assignment of employees has not only gained in importance, but has also played a pioneering role in shaping this development. As a law firm with an international orientation, we have an excellent network as well as specific expertise in the field of global mobility and an outstanding cooperation partner.
