Before hiring, sanctioning, terminating, or negotiating, turn the labor decision into a legal strategy.

A well-structured consultation can prevent costly mistakes, reduce contingencies, improve negotiation, and define whether the matter should be prevented, settled, defended, or litigated.

Frequently asked questions

Clarity before acting.

Do you handle cases outside Bogotá?

Yes. Consultations can be handled virtually for clients in Bogotá, Cali, Medellín, and throughout Colombia.

Do you work with both employees and companies?

Yes. Experience on both sides makes it possible to anticipate arguments, understand risks, and build more complete strategies.

Does the consultation guarantee a result?

No. No serious legal advice can guarantee outcomes. The consultation seeks to provide a technical, honest, and strategic reading of the case.

What documents should I have for the consultation?

Contract, letters, pay slips, final settlement, emails, chats, notices, sanctions, employment history, or any document related to the conflict.

How much does the initial consultation cost?

The initial consultation costs COP $150,000. It allows a preliminary review of the case, identification of risks, assessment of real possibilities, and definition of whether it is advisable to claim, negotiate, settle, defend, or initiate legal action.

How long does the initial consultation last?

The initial consultation lasts approximately one hour. During that time, the main facts, essential documents, and possible legal routes are reviewed.

What happens if the case requires a more complex document review?

When the case requires an extensive review of documents, files, contracts, communications, or administrative proceedings, a complex verbal consultation may be scheduled for COP $280,000. If you first take the initial consultation and later require this more complex review, the amount paid for the initial consultation is deducted from the total value of the second consultation.

How are cases handled?

Cases are mainly handled virtually for clients in Bogotá, Cali, Medellín, and throughout Colombia. In-person attention may also be evaluated when the circumstances justify it.

How is the consultation scheduled?

Before the consultation, please write via WhatsApp to confirm availability, type of case, and payment method. The appointment is scheduled after payment of the corresponding consultation fee.

Why choose a labor lawyer with business and administrative law experience?

Because many labor disputes are not solved only by knowing labor rules. They may also involve business decisions, documentary evidence, disciplinary proceedings, actions before public authorities, fines, resolutions, Ministry of Labor inspections, or decisions from superintendencies. A labor, business, and administrative perspective allows for a more complete defense.

Can I consult whether I need a labor lawyer for a dismissal, sanction, or final settlement?

Yes. The initial consultation makes it possible to review whether there is a real risk, whether it is advisable to claim, negotiate, settle, respond to a notice, file appeals, or initiate judicial or administrative action.
