Practice Areas

Fired for speaking up, taking protected leave, reporting unlawful conduct, or refusing to violate the law? We help employees determine whether a termination was unlawful.

California employees are protected from discrimination based on race, sex, disability, pregnancy, age, religion, national origin, sexual orientation, gender identity, and other protected traits.

No employee should have to endure sexual harassment, offensive conduct, threats, intimidation, or a workplace that feels unsafe or abusive.

Employers cannot punish employees for exercising workplace rights, reporting illegal conduct, requesting accommodations, filing complaints, or opposing discrimination or harassment.

We handle claims involving unpaid wages, unpaid overtime, minimum wage violations, off-the-clock work, improper deductions, inaccurate pay statements, and employee misclassification.

California law provides important break protections for many nonexempt employees. We help workers pursue claims for missed, interrupted, shortened, or unpaid meal and rest breaks.

Employees may have rights to protected time off for serious health conditions, pregnancy-related disability, bonding with a new child, caring for family members, paid sick leave, and other qualifying reasons.

Employees with disabilities may be entitled to reasonable accommodations and an interactive process with their employer.

Workers who report unlawful conduct, safety concerns, wage violations, fraud, or other misconduct may be protected from retaliation.

We review severance agreements, employment contracts, arbitration agreements, releases, and restrictive covenants so employees understand what they are being asked to sign.
