Caroline Wood

As an associate in our International HR Services Group based in Paris, I advise our clients on all aspects of employment law and manage litigation matters.

I assist both French and international companies in addressing the full range of issues that may arise in the course of employment relationships.

My practice spans all industries, where I work to anticipate, prevent, and resolve the legal challenges inherent in human resources management and labour relations.

I provide guidance on both individual matters (such as the negotiation, performance, and termination of employment contracts) and collective labour law issues (including the establishment of employee representative bodies and corporate restructuring).

I also represent clients in employment law disputes before all French courts.

Prior to joining Bird & Bird, I built my expertise at several French and international law firms. My experience within the employment division of the Paris Court of Appeal further deepened my understanding of judicial processes and judges' expectations, key strengths in successfully managing litigation.
