Case Types and Services

The matters we handle

We assist employees in all disputes with the employer, both out of court and before the courts.

Unlawful dismissal and dismissal for just cause

Assessment of the lawfulness of a dismissal — disciplinary, for objective or subjective justified reason, or for just cause — and selection of the most favourable form of protection, ranging from reinstatement in the workplace to compensatory monetary remedies, depending on the regime applicable to the employment relationship.

Challenge of the dismissal

Handling the challenge within the mandatory deadlines of 60 days from notification for the out-of-court contestation and 180 days for the filing of the court application. Timeliness is decisive: forfeiture precludes any form of protection.

Resignation and resignation for just cause

Assistance in submitting resignations — through the mandatory online procedure — and, in cases of serious breaches by the employer, in resignations for just cause, which entitle the employee to receive payment in lieu of notice and to access NASpI unemployment benefits.

Workplace bullying (mobbing) and straining

Assessment of repeated harassing or oppressive conduct in the workplace and action for compensation of biological, moral and existential damage. Evaluation of the constituent elements — systematic nature, harmful intent, effects on health — according to the criteria developed by case law.

Demotion and unlawful transfer

Protection of the employee against assignment to lower-level duties or against transfers lacking technical, organisational or production-related reasons, in breach of art. 2103 of the Italian Civil Code. Application for restoration of duties and for compensation of professional damage.

Non-payment of salaries and severance pay (TFR)

Judicial and out-of-court recovery of employment-related claims: unpaid wages, severance pay (TFR), allowances for untaken holidays and thirteenth-month payments. Use of the order for payment procedure and intervention of the INPS Guarantee Fund in case of employer insolvency.

Pay differentials and contractual classification

Actions for recognition of the correct contractual classification and for payment of pay differentials accrued in cases of higher-level duties or incorrect application of the relevant National Collective Labour Agreement (CCNL).

Undeclared and irregular work

Regularisation of services performed without a contract or under a sham contract, recovery of omitted social security contributions, and ascertainment of subordinate employment relationships disguised as self-employed or quasi-subordinate forms of collaboration.

Workplace accidents and occupational diseases

Protection of the worker injured or affected by occupational disease, with action against INAIL for social security benefits and against the employer for differential damages, in case of breach of health and safety rules under art. 2087 of the Italian Civil Code.

Disciplinary proceedings and harassment in the workplace

Defence in disciplinary proceedings (art. 7 of the Statuto dei Lavoratori), from the formal notice to the sanction, and protection of victims of harassment — sexual, moral or discriminatory — with compensation claims and application for protective organisational measures.
