英典聯合法律事務所創立於西元2002年6月,創立初期與一般中小型事務所相同,是以提供民眾及中小型企業法律訴訟及顧問服務為主,當時台灣仍處於製造業密集的經濟環境,產業如何能降低製造成本,並且縮短製成品時間,是企業致勝的關鍵!因此,法律事務所在此期間,均是以協助企業建制內部管理制度,尤其是因應勞動基準法退休制度的修正,而為勞動契約的設計與人員薪資規劃,由於本所曾參與企業勞動規則的製訂與審核,是對於勞資關係間的爭訟,擁有較一般事務所為佳的經驗,在此期間曾為台電公司派遣人員,確認與台電公司因長期工作的事實,而確認與台電公司的僱傭關係,此應為全國第一件有利於派遣人員認定的判決。

EDON Law Firm was established in June 2002. In its initial stages, it operated similarly to typical small and medium-sized law firms, focusing on providing legal litigation and consulting services to the public and small and medium-sized enterprises. At that time, Taiwan was still in an economy heavily reliant on manufacturing, where reducing manufacturing costs and shortening the production time of finished goods were key factors for businesses to succeed! Therefore, during this period, the law firm assisted companies in establishing internal management systems, particularly in response to amendments to the labor standards law regarding retirement systems, focusing on the design of labor contracts and personnel salary planning. The firm participated in the formulation and review of corporate labor rules, giving it a better experience in handling disputes between labor and management compared to typical law firms. During this time, it acted for Taiwan Electric Power Company’s dispatched workers, confirming the facts of their long-term employment with the company, which established an employment relationship with them. This should be the first favorable judgment in the nation concerning the recognition of dispatched personnel.
