Employment, Labour and Service Law

Comprehensive legal solutions for workplace rights, compliance, and service law matters

The workplace is governed by a complex network of employment contracts, labour statutes, service rules, and regulatory frameworks. Whether you are an employee facing wrongful termination or an employer seeking compliance with labour laws, navigating these issues without legal guidance can be risky and costly.

At LD Counsels, we provide comprehensive legal support in employment, labour, and service matters for both private and government sectors, across Delhi NCR and Pan-India. Our work spans employment disputes, disciplinary proceedings, labour compliance, industrial relations, and service law matters, including representation before Labour Courts, Industrial Tribunals, High Courts, and the Central Administrative Tribunal (CAT).

We help employees secure their workplace rights, assist employers in minimising legal risks, and handle government service matters from appointment to retirement, including transfers, promotions, disciplinary actions, and pension disputes.
