Law firm

Müller-Volbehr Hitzer is a law firm specializing in labor law, based in Munich. We have many years of outstanding expertise in this field and represent companies, supervisory boards, board members, managing directors and executives. We advise our clients in all matters of individual and collective labor law and represent them in court throughout Germany and out of court.

Working method


We maintain a long-term, trusting cooperation with our clients. Together with our clients, we develop individual solutions that take into account the business environment, the strategic scope and the situation of the people affected. Our recommendations are well-founded, concrete and pragmatic. We are committed, reliable and personal advisers for our clients. We communicate openly and transparently.

Clients

Our clients include corporate groups and medium-sized companies from the information technology, automotive, metal and electronics industries, medical and laboratory technology, finance, media, education, fashion, wholesale and foreign trade, as well as the construction and gastronomy sectors. We also advise charitable institutions and NGOs.

Network

We have a reliable network for international and / or interdisciplinary projects or mandates. As the exclusive representative for corporate employment in Germany of IR Global, an international network of national commercial law firms, we offer our clients the possibility of highly qualified legal advice abroad.

Services

Competition and technological advances require a high degree of responsibility and flexibility from companies and their employees. Labor law can be leveraged as an important corporate-governance tool, in particular for the set-up of business structures and steering of work processes. As specialists in labor law, we advise companies, board members, managing directors, works councils and executives in all individual and collective labor law issues, as well as in the related legal areas of corporate, commercial and social security law.
