Global Employment Law

Practical, forward-looking legal counsel for employers managing cross-border hiring, compliance, and employee relations.

Business-Oriented Guidance for a Complex Global Workforce

When your workforce spans countries and legal systems, employment decisions can quickly become complicated. Whether you're hiring abroad, separating an employee, updating policies, or managing employee relations across borders, you need guidance that’s not only legally sound — but practical and aligned with business needs.

Horizon Employment Law provides strategic, on-demand support to in-house legal teams and HR professionals managing employment law issues in the U.S. and around the world. We don’t just offer legal insight — we help you see the path forward.

International Employment Counsel for a Global Economy

Our global employment attorneys counsel corporate clients through every stage of the employee lifecycle. Our clients range from fast-growing startups expanding into new markets to established multinationals managing day-to-day cross-border challenges.

Our international employment law services include:

  • Hiring in new jurisdictions and preparing compliant offer letters or employment agreements
  • Managing employee terminations while minimizing legal risk
  • Advising on works councils, consultation obligations, and collective labor issues
  • Supporting cross-border transfers, relocations, and employee mobility
  • Updating or creating employee handbooks, codes of conduct, and HR policies in California and globally
  • Navigating local leave laws, disability accommodations, and disciplinary procedures
  • Drafting and enforcing non-competes and restrictive covenants across regions

When you need a global employment lawyer who can step in quickly, offer sound judgment, and keep things moving, Horizon Employment Law is ready to support your team.

Employment Law Support That Scales With You

Many of our clients already have strong internal legal departments — they just need experienced outside legal support for international matters, regional overflow, or one-off compliance questions that require clear, practical answers. That’s where Horizon Employment Law fits in.

We integrate smoothly with your internal team, work efficiently with local counsel when needed, and help you align global strategy with local requirements — without slowing the pace of business.

Whether you’re hiring your first employee in a new country or navigating a multi-country policy rollout, our goal is always the same: help you make informed decisions and move forward with clarity.

A Strategic Partner for International Employment Issues

We’ve helped U.S. employers understand how to:

  • Hire in global markets across APAC, EMEA and the Americas
  • Navigate employment terminations in countries with strict separation rules
  • Comply with notice periods, severance requirements, and local HR laws
  • Respond to workplace issues that cross time zones, cultures, and regulatory systems
  • Align internal policies with ever-changing local regulations — without rewriting everything from scratch

As your international employment team, we provide solutions that support not only legal compliance — but long-term operational success. We’re not here to overcomplicate. We’re here to clarify.

Your Workforce Is Global,
Your Counsel Should Be Too
