Littler Mendelson is continuing its push to expand abroad, having hired a six-lawyer team for a new office in Milan, Italy—the firm’s fourth new European office launched in the past two years.

The Italian team is led by experienced labor and employment lawyers Carlo Majer and Edgardo Ratti. Majer joins the firm from Italy-based employment law boutique Lexellent, while Ratti joins from Trevisan & Cuonzo in Italy. The two previously worked together at LabLaw, another Italian firm focused on labor and employment law.
