Expatriate employees covers UK and international assignments where an employee works outside the usual jurisdiction or abroad, and the decisions that apply to their contract, rights and protections. A solicitor in this area drafts and negotiates expatriate or secondment agreements, reviews governing law and jurisdiction, advises on visas and work permits, and handles issues around pay, pensions, and benefits while abroad. They also advise on dismissal, discrimination, and performance problems that cross borders, and how enforcement and remedies operate in different countries.
