Don’t delay defending your employment rights in Gijón
Have you received a dismissal notice? Does the company owe you wages? Do you need to process a work disability? Have you suffered an accident? Many employment conflicts have very short deadlines to act (for example, 20 business days for dismissals).
Waiting can mean losing your rights or receiving less compensation than you’re entitled to. Every day that passes without the advice of an employment attorney in Gijón can complicate your situation.
What do I offer you? A clear initial action plan in Gijón
A clear plan to resolve your problem without complications. So you can regain your peace of mind and put the problem behind you:
1. I analyze your case and evaluate the available legal options. I will study your particular situation (your contract, the working conditions, the communication from the company…) to offer you a clear diagnosis and the possible courses of action in employment matters.
2. I design the most effective strategy to protect your rights. As an attorney specialized in employment law in Gijón, I will outline the best legal strategy for your case, whether it’s negotiation, a claim before the SMAC or defense before the employment courts of Gijón.
3. I defend your position by representing your interests with rigor and transparency. I will handle everything in the process, from drafting documents to representation in court, keeping you clearly informed to defend your rights with maximum effectiveness.

I know the law, judicial criteria, and how to effectively protect your rights.

My legal services in employment law and Social Security
As an employment attorney in Gijón, I offer you expert legal counsel and defense focused on your rights. My experience covers all crucial areas of employment law and social security:
Wrongful Terminations in Gijón
I review your termination letter, calculate what you’re entitled to and prepare the strategy (negotiation, conciliation or lawsuit).
The objective is for you to obtain reinstatement when appropriate or wrongful termination compensation properly calculated. The deadline to challenge is, as a rule, 20 business days. That is, every day counts.
Workplace Accidents
I coordinate the medical expert assessment and risk prevention analysis, evaluate avenues (company, insurer) and benefit surcharge if applicable. The objective is for you to obtain maximum compensation for damages or benefit improvements. Important, keep medical reports, witnesses and evidence from the workplace from now on.
Workplace Disciplinary Actions
I handle reviewing the legality of the disciplinary action and the procedure, prepare objections and challenge it if it doesn’t comply with the law.
The objective is to achieve annulment or reduction of the disciplinary action and protection of your internal record.
Maternity and Paternity
I defend your maternity and paternity rights. I handle claiming the corresponding benefits from the INSS and offer you legal protection against any type of discrimination or dismissal due to pregnancy or childcare.
Vacation
I calculate the vacation days you are entitled to and file claims if the company does not grant them on the agreed dates, refuses to pay them in your final settlement, or interrupts your right to rest.
Permanent Disability
I fight for your pension (whether Partial, Total, Absolute, or Total Disability) if an illness or accident prevents you from returning to work. I handle the entire process against the INSS, from the initial application to the judicial lawsuit.
Temporary Disability
I defend you if the Workers’ Compensation Insurance or INSS clears you for work and you are not recovered. I challenge the decision so you can remain on sick leave, protecting both your health and your salary during recovery.
Wage Claims
I calculate exactly what you are owed, gather evidence (payroll records, schedules, time records, messages) and file claims with a solid foundation.
The goal is for you to collect the outstanding amounts and, where applicable, interest.
Employment Contracts
I review the legality of your employment contract. If you are misclassified as an independent contractor, have a temporary contract in violation of the law, or the company fails to comply with agreed conditions, I provide the legal coverage you need.
Paid Leave
I advise you on all paid leave you are entitled to by law or collective agreement (marriage, death, family hospitalization, etc.). If the company unjustifiably denies them, I file claims on your behalf.
Work-life balance
I help you request and defend your right to schedule adaptation, reduced hours, or remote work for childcare or family care. If the company denies it, I prepare the judicial claim.
Working hours and schedule
I protect your rights against schedule changes, abusive shifts, or failure to implement working time records. I claim payment for all overtime hours you work that are not being compensated.
Modification of working conditions
I defend you if the company wants to impose substantial and unjustified changes to your working hours, schedule, salary, duties, or workplace (geographical mobility). I challenge the decision to reverse it.
Wage Claims
I focus on claiming specific salary components that the company is not paying you: collective agreement bonuses, seniority, night shift, hazard pay, or salary differences due to failure to apply correct pay scales.
Remote work
I advise on your rights if you work remotely: mandatory expense compensation, time tracking, right to digital disconnection… If the company breaches the remote work agreement, I file the claim.
