Types of Employment Cases We Handle​

Our team of skilled labor lawyers has extensive experience representing clients in a variety of employment law cases, including:

If you reported fraud, safety violations, misuse of funds, or unlawful conduct and faced retaliation, California’s whistleblower laws may protect you. We guide employees through strict filing deadlines and pursue reinstatement, back pay, and damages when employers violate the Whistleblower Protection Act or Labor Code 1102.5.

Even in an at-will state like California, employers cannot terminate employees for illegal reasons. If you were fired because of discrimination, retaliation, whistleblowing, or refusal to engage in unlawful conduct, we investigate your termination and pursue compensation or reinstatement when the law has been violated.

Before signing a severance agreement, it is important to understand what rights you may be waiving. We review non-compete clauses, confidentiality provisions, and release language to protect your interests and negotiate fair compensation where appropriate.

California’s Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA) protects employees from discrimination based on race, gender, age, disability, sexual orientation, religion, national origin, and other protected characteristics. If your employer denied reasonable accommodations, refused leave, or treated you unfairly because of a protected status, our attorneys will investigate and pursue the remedies available under California law.

California employees are entitled to minimum wage, overtime pay, meal and rest breaks, and timely payment of wages. Whether you were misclassified as an independent contractor, denied overtime, or not paid all wages earned, our attorneys audit your records and demand full compliance with California labor laws.

California law prohibits employers from taking adverse action against employees who report wrongdoing or assert their rights. If you were demoted, disciplined, or terminated after filing a complaint, requesting accommodations, or reporting misconduct, we will build a retaliation case under FEHA and Labor Code 1102.5 to hold your employer accountable.

Workplace harassment can create a hostile work environment that interferes with your ability to do your job. Whether the misconduct involves verbal abuse, inappropriate comments, physical behavior, or online harassment, we document the evidence, advise you on internal reporting, and pursue claims under California employment law to protect your rights.

Under California’s WARN Act, employers must provide advance notice before certain mass layoffs or relocations. If you were terminated without proper notice, we pursue claims for lost wages, benefits, and statutory penalties to enforce compliance with California labor laws.
