Corporate social responsability

Our corporate culture

CASTEGNARO has a strong international presence, in particular through Ius Laboris, although the size of the firm does not detract from a friendly atmosphere conducive to exchanges.

Each lawyer carries out his or her tasks ethically and independently, with the support of more experienced lawyers, mutual assistance being an important value within the firm. Each lawyer and administrative staff member is personally responsible for the values of the firm, which are in particular the following Mutual respect and trust; Ethics; Communication and team spirit; Balance between private and professional life; Personal commitment; Diversity. Since its creation, the firm has been firmly committed to Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and Sustainable Development. The firm takes into account social, environmental and economic considerations in its daily operations. The responsible working environment that the firm strives to develop and maintain helps to strengthen teamwork and increase performance.

Our Approach

Our firm is committed to a pragmatic approach, in order to be the true partner of HR and Legal departments in the daily management of human resources. CASTEGNARO distinguishes itself from other law firms in the market by ensuring, for more than ten years, the defence of the interests of employers (companies, associations, self-employed persons, ministries and administrations), and only employers. This choice has enabled it to develop and offer cutting-edge legal services to better meet the needs of its clients, with "out of the box" and tailor-made solutions, in ever shorter formats and deadlines. CASTEGNARO listens to its clients and ensures that it maintains a pragmatic and up-to-date approach to legal issues, so that clients can be sure of receiving a constructive response to their question. Our clients benefit from the know-how of our lawyers through complimentary additional services such as publications, newsletters, newsflashes, seminars and internal training.

Our history

Founded in 2004 by Me Guy Castegnaro, CASTEGNARO-Ius Laboris Luxembourg is proud to have established itself over the last few years as the only "niche" law firm in the field of employment law, at the service of employers, highly and exclusively specialised in all legal aspects of the employment relationship, both in the strict sense of employment law (employment contracts, working hours, terminations, transfer of undertakings, redundancy plans, renegotiation of collective labour agreements, etc. ), as well as in a broader sense (personal data protection, social security, pensions, immigration, company law and taxation of remuneration). CASTEGNARO has grown from a team of 5 lawyers in 2004 to a team of 12 lawyers, including Guy Castegnaro and Ariane Claverie, Partners, and 2 legal advisors, all of whom are fully dedicated to labour law, in the service of employers. We work together, in close collaboration, on an equal footing, in order to offer creative and excellent solutions to our clients.
