JUVE Handbook
The established boutique is a master of the entire spectrum of employer advice and has respected partners with their own profile at all 3 offices. It offers specialised advice, in particular on restructuring, occupational pension schemes and compliance. In particularly sensitive cases, companies like to rely on the experienced name partner, for example in investigations into competition law offences. In addition to compliance advice, the restructuring business has also picked up recently, with Spielberger significantly expanding its advice to Gerry Weber. Meanwhile, Beck, who is highly praised by clients and competitors alike, succeeded in expanding her work for regular client Berlin Chemie from occupational pension advice to current topics such as supply chain compliance or AI in employment relationships. With the renewed appointment of a salary partner, the firm also shows that it is serious about promoting young talent.
