When is it wise to negotiate?

Determine your position first, only then react

Negotiating is particularly worthwhile if there is room to secure better terms or if your employer does not sufficiently take your rights into account.

Compensation too low

Your employer's proposal may be lower than is reasonable given your position, employment, or circumstances.

Incorrect end date

An incorrect end date can have consequences for salary, notice period, or unemployment benefits.

Incomplete agreements

Think of vacation days, bonus, non-compete clause, exemption from work, laptop, company car, or certificate of employment.

Pressure from the employer

Do not let yourself be pressured into signing quickly. Assess first, then respond.

Clear steps

How does it work?

1

Determine strategy

We discuss your situation, position, and goal. Then we determine the best tone and approach towards the employer.

2

Inform employer

Our lawyer or legal expert prepares a clear response and explains why an adjustment is necessary.

3

Negotiating

We conduct the negotiation and assess periodically whether a proposal is sensible.

4

Record agreements

Agreements reached are legally recorded, so that you know what to fall back on.

You decide whether you agree.

We advise on the legal and practical consequences, but the choice always remains yours.

Avoid losing negotiating room

Why not negotiate yourself?

Risk that you agree too quickly
Review before responding substantively
Emotion influences the tone
Business and legally sharp communication
There is a lack of room for negotiation
Strategy based on rights, risks, and evidentiary position
Agreements are insufficiently documented
Check on wording and final agreements

The tone of the initial reaction often determines what follows.

Therefore, it is important not only to be legally right, but also to respond strategically well.
