Practice areas
Public sector labour and employment law
A thorough understanding of how public sector labour and employment law interacts with public law is a prerequisite – together with a good measure of political insight – to advising clients in this area
Discrimination
Discrimination is currently the fastest growing practice area
Legal investigations and inquiries
Legal investigations and inquiries are an important tool when companies, authorities or organisations have a need to uncover and assess a matter or course of events
Litigation
Norrbom Vinding’s litigators are among the most skilled litigators in Denmark
Pensions
In many cases, labour and employment law issues cannot be assessed only from a labour and employment law perspective
Data protection
The demand for data protection advice has increased explosively in recent years – and in this area, too, we are highly specialised
I recently
- conducted a significant number of cases for public sector employers concerning public servants as well as staff employed under a collective agreement
- chaired a day-long conference on the employment law issues related to managing sickness absence
- helped a number of municipalities discharge the shared burden of proof in cases concerning age and disability discrimination
- provided ongoing assistance to employers in discrimination cases, both before the Danish Board of Equal Treatment and the civil courts
- represented the joint committees in the medical practice sector in a number of court cases
- assisted a number of clients in ensuring data protection compliance
