Good Work.

For Employers

and Employees.

Julia Wittig Employment Law. My career and values.

I have experience in litigation before the German labor courts and out-of-court counselling in all matters of employment law and have advised clients from a variety of industries and backgrounds.

​

Before founding J / W Employment Law in 2022, I worked for several renowned international law firms specializing in employment law.

 

In 2019, I successfully completed the certified employment lawyers' course of the German Lawyers' Institute. I hold above-average law degrees and have gained international experience in New York, Brussels, Cairo and Aix-en-Provence.

My values

I run my law firm in a value-based and sustainable way.

My office equipment is as resource-conserving as possible. I have bought necessary electronic equipment and furniture second-hand or selected manufacturers that meet minimum sustainable standards. I keep my files paperless and purchase electricity from a green energy provider. Necessary business trips, e.g. to out-of-town court appointments, are made by train or public transport instead of by car or plane. 

I devote at least 5% of my monthly working time to projects that are close to my heart, such as pro bono mandates. Furthermore, 2% of my profits go as a donation to charitable organizations. Feel free to let me know if you would like to distribute the donation stemming from your mandate to a specific organization.
