LEGAL ADVICE NEEDED

I have received an appeal for legal advice in the area of employment law here in Luxembourg. A member of one of the other linguistic communities believes they have been unjustly dealt with by their employer, and need general advice on whether or not they might have a case to bring. Do we have anyone in our community that might be able to help, even a little (and pro bono) in this regard? If you might be able to assist, or point me in the direction of an appropriate 3rd party/agency, please contact me or see me at Mass.

Thank you.
