Manage your relations and your disputes with institutions and industrial tribunals

How to handle and respond to the Labour Administration, URSSAF, industrial tribunals, Social Security?


The social organisations in France ensure the application of the labour law in all its aspects: health and safety, working conditions, working hours, respect of the payment of contributions etc. When an inspection takes place, or the basis of a dispute is found, the company must then explain its position to various social organisations and jurisdictions: the Labour Administration (DIRECCTE), URSSAF (Government agency that collects social security contributions), the industrial tribunal and the competent courts (Social Security tribunal, administrative tribunal, etc).  

LAMY LEXEL lawyers accompany you by implementing the necessary corrective action in the case of an URSSAF inspection, occupational hazard/accidents at work, and defend you in the case of being sued by one of your employees. The strong points of our social team? Fifteen lawyers specialising in labour and social security law in Lyon and Paris, combining reactivity and perfect knowledge of the courts and proximity to you and your concerns! We also work in partnership with S4S Solutions to help you optimize your social costs.
