Diana Nehro is a Member of the Board of Directors, as well as the Chair of the Cross-Border Practice Group of Ogletree Deakins. Employers choose Diana to assist with their most sensitive matters — particularly at the executive and board level — because of the judgment, discretion and cross-border experience the work demands. Diana strives to live by her mantra: “it’s handled.” Employers who’ve worked with her know exactly what this means: the matter will be addressed pragmatically, efficiently, and compliantly, allowing them to get back to the important work of running their business. She has experience in advising multinational clients in connection with the establishment and management of international workforces, including the preparation and enforcement of personnel policies and employment agreements, compensation and benefits, litigation avoidance and strategy, as well as general corporate matters germane to employers conducting business abroad. Diana also leverages her white-collar defense experience to assist clients in whistleblower complaints and responsive investigations, worldwide.
As chair of the Cross-Border Practice Group, Diana has built and leads a growing team of highly-skilled, US-based attorneys who are uniquely experienced in employment-law matters worldwide, including advising clients on all areas of managing a local workforce, including onboarding, employment agreements, statutory entitlements, variable compensation plans, employee handbooks, and codes of ethics and conduct, payroll tax and permanent establishment concerns, policies and procedures, incentive compensation plans and restrictive covenants and terminations, including severance benefits and independent contractor agreements, and labor-related merger and acquisition issues. Diana also partners closely with Ogletree’s offices in Mexico City, Monterrey, London, Belfast, Toronto, Quebec, Calgary, Berlin, Munich and Paris to provide a full array of cross-border legal services to global clients.
