Labour Law
Legal assistance in employment relations — employment contracts, dismissals, compensation and protection in labour disputes for employers and employees.
Labour law governs the relationship between employers and workers. Global Lex Consulting provides legal assistance to both parties in employment relationships — in concluding and terminating employment contracts, in labour disputes and in employment legislation matters.
We advise employers in building internal employment policies — drafting employment contracts, job descriptions, internal labour regulations and internal remuneration rules. We provide legal assistance with collective redundancies, restructuring and changes to employment conditions.
We represent employees in cases of unlawful dismissal, unpaid wages and violations of employment rights — before the Labour Inspectorate and civil courts.

- Drafting and reviewing employment contracts
- Advisory on termination of employment contracts
- Defence against unlawful dismissal

- What is the deadline for challenging a wrongful dismissal in Bulgaria?
- An employee must file a claim for wrongful dismissal within 2 months of receiving the termination notice (Art. 358 Labour Code). This is a mandatory statutory limitation — courts will not hear a late claim even if the dismissal was clearly unlawful. If successful, the employee can be reinstated, receive compensation for lost wages (up to 6 months), and have the dismissal declared void.
- How can employers get legal assistance in Bulgarian labour disputes?
- Employers benefit from legal advice before dismissal — ensuring the correct procedure (written notice, hearing the employee, citing the exact legal ground) is followed. Procedural errors are the most common reason Bulgarian courts annul otherwise justified dismissals. We advise on employment contracts, disciplinary procedures, collective redundancies and workplace investigations.
