Employment and Benefits

With a range of specialist expertise, our 20-strong team of lawyers advises on contractual issues arising from acquisitions, company restructuring, incentive programmes and pension arrangements.

Employment law advice

We represent clients in redundancy and restructuring situations, and we also help in compensation disputes – for instance when employees start up a competing business. We deal with employment law disputes, discrimination matters and health and safety issues, as well as cross border employment law. We can also advise on how the gig economy may affect the traditional concepts of employer and employee.

International projects

We advise multinationals on establishing European Work Councils, and on cross border acquisitions. This includes establishing European companies, SE companies and outsourcing entire departments internationally. Our lawyers can also help with work permit issues when Swedish companies wish to employ labour abroad.

Our collective expertise

Year after year, international ranking organisations and client surveys rank Vinge’s labour and employment law specialists in tier 1. Because we are a full-service firm, we can support our clients in all their business law matters.

What the ranking organisations say

“Vinge is according to one client ‘the best employment law firm in Sweden,’ and highlights the firm’s ‘fantastic cross-border capabilities and broad network of lawyers in other countries,’ adding: ‘They are very good at taking the overall responsibility for coordinating the advice of foreign lawyers. They have highly skilled teams in most areas of law.’” (Chambers and Partners)

“Pragmatic, responsive and knowledgeable.” (Legal 500, 2017)
