The group is proficient in union negotiations, collective bargaining agreements and dismissals, and also assists with restructurings, due diligence for corporate transactions, and litigation involving individual and collective claims. Francisco Vacas, who excels in collective labour disputes, and Patricia Ponce, who has a great deal of experience in workforce restructurings and termination procedures, jointly lead the team. Vanessa Granizo Sanchez and Juan Pablo Ramírez Viteri stand out for their involvement in labour litigation.
