Workplace Bullying - Employment Lawyer
Conflict patterns, documentation, and legal steps in Germany

If workplace conflict becomes systematic, the key questions often are how to document it, how to assess it legally, and how to address it sensibly under employment law.

These are usually the points that matter most in employment disputes:

  • Review of the conflict pattern and its employment-law relevance
  • Assessment of documentation, emails, and conversation history
  • Evaluation of internal and legal options for action
  • Clear lawyer guidance on the most sensible way forward

You receive clear guidance on how the conflict should be assessed under employment law and which steps now make sense.

Important: In systematic workplace-conflict cases, a clean chronology is often especially important.

Fast case processing, very friendly contact, would gladly use their services again (not the accident itself, but the handling of the case by Dr. Lerch...)

Mr. Lerch provided me with highly professional, calm, and dedicated support throughout my legal proceedings. I particularly appreciated his honest assessment of my case and the clear communication he maintained throughout the entire process. Thanks to his strategy and preparation, we achieved a significantly better outcome than originally anticipated in the penalty order. I felt well-advised and taken seriously at all times. I can therefore wholeheartedly recommend Mr. Lerch and thank him again for his support. B. Paal

How it works

Send the documents and situation

You send the key documents and briefly explain the situation and any immediate time pressure.

Step 2

Have it legally reviewed

I review deadlines, legal challenge points, economic risks, and your negotiating position.

Step 3

Receive clear guidance

You receive clear guidance on which response or strategy makes sense.

Step 4

Implement the next steps

If further action makes sense, negotiation, correspondence, or court steps are implemented in a structured way.
