Proven Advocates In California Employment Litigation

We have obtained notable results in helping clients stand up to wrongful practices. Our lawyers handle the full spectrum of employment matters, including:

Although California is an at-will employment state, meaning that without a contract you can be fired for no particular reason, you cannot be lawfully fired for a discriminatory reason. We have achieved excellent results prosecuting lawsuits against employers under the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Americans with Disabilities Act, California’s FEHA statute, and other state and federal protections.

Discrimination And Harassment

You do not have to be fired to have a lawsuit against your employer. Many times, discrimination takes subtler forms, such as unequal treatment, demotion, failure to promote or deliberate creation of a hostile work environment. If an employer takes these actions for a discriminatory reason, the employer may be subject to liability.

Discrimination or harassment directly from a supervisor can subject the employer to strict liability. If you are being subjected to discrimination or sexual harassment from a co-worker or subordinate, or even a customer, your employer also has the duty to take action.

Lawsuits generally must be filed within a year of the discriminatory conduct, or within six months if you are bringing suit against a government agency. We will help you understand your legal options and the protocols for documenting and reporting the mistreatment to your supervisor or superior. Our attorneys will skillfully advocate for you at every step of the process, including settlement negotiations or representation at hearings and trial.
