The employment lawyers at Hershey Law work with employees, providing legal advice and representation on matters related to employment law.
Our Practice Areas
At Hershey Law, our Beverly Hills attorneys practice law in several practice areas, including:
Discrimination:
Discrimination occurs when an employer treats an employee unfairly or differently based on their race, gender, sexual orientation, age, disability (physical or mental impairment), religion, or other protected characteristics. Our attorneys can help individuals who have experienced discrimination to pursue legal action against their employer.
Harassment:
Harassment is a form of discrimination that involves unwelcome conduct, such as offensive jokes, comments, or physical contact, that creates a hostile or abusive work environment. It can take many different forms, including sexual harassment, racial harassment, age harassment, physical harassment, retaliation harassment, and more. Our attorneys can help employees who have experienced harassment to take the appropriate steps to report harassment and protect their legal rights.
Wrongful Termination:
Wrongful termination occurs when an employer fires an employee for an illegal reason, such as discrimination, retaliation, or breach of contract. Our attorneys are available to assist individuals who have been wrongfully terminated in pursuing legal action against their former employer.
Wage and Hour Disputes:
Wage and hour disputes arise when an employee is not paid the appropriate amount in wages or overtime. A Beverly Hills employment lawyer from our law firm can help employees to recover unpaid wages and overtime pay, as well as other damages related to wage and hour disputes.
