Dr. Hagen Köckeritz, LLM oec. int.

Clients turn to Hagen Köckeritz for advice on all labor and employment-related aspects of multijurisdictional and national projects, particularly in conjunction with complex company reorganizations, national and international mergers and acquisitions and outsourcing of activities.

Hagen guides clients through all stages of the employment cycle, including counsel on hiring considerations, restrictive covenants, disciplinary advice, leave management, employment separation and enforcement of restrictive covenants. He assists clients in the management of day-to-day works council matters and the implementation of operational changes, which involves negotiations with unions and works councils. Hagen also advises clients on benefit and compensation matters. Another key area of Hagen’s practice is the use of external personnel by companies in Germany and the legal and financial risks resulting from potential misclassification of employees.
