Axel Brodehl specializes in drafting labor law agreements (contracts for managing directors, employment contracts, home office and mobile working, working hours, company cars, etc.) and conducting negotiations.
His books, aimed at practitioners, present topics relevant to labor law in an easy-to-understand & paragraph-free manner. With recommendations for action.
In his lectures and seminars Axel Brodehl presents to legal laymen the most expensive mistakes that typically happen again and again. Important to him is a varied presentation with numerous practical examples. (He leaves out paragraphs as far as possible in his presentations - except in front of a professional audience from the personnel sector or with a legal background).
The target audience is entrepreneurs and executives, including managing directors, managers at all levels, plant managers, branch managers, division managers, department managers, team leaders, group leaders, foremen and supervisors (all genders).
In in-house training courses, Axel Brodehl addresses the specific needs of the company. In open seminars, on the other hand, participants also benefit from the issues raised by participants from other companies and industries.
The most frequent requests are for seminars on the topics of employment contracts, fixed-term contracts, warnings, termination and working time law. Since the Corona crisis, Axel Brodehl has increasingly held online seminars, especially on home office and mobile working. Since June 2022 - two days after the decision of the Bundestag - he also regularly presents the new duties and pitfalls of the Verification Act. The topics of time recording and working hours are an evergreen and consistently topical and - from a legal point of view - fire risky for companies; due to the new case law of the Federal Labor Court, there are also new uncertainties.
Axel Brodehl is active throughout Germany. His law firm is based in Frankfurt am Main.
