Labor and Employment law forms the cornerstone of our firm’s practice. We have successfully protected the legal rights of a broad spectrum of employees from restaurant workers, medical professionals, and retail managers, to Fortune 500 executives. We also assist employers with the development of human resource policies to ensure compliance with California’s employment laws.
As a California employee, the law affords you many protections. These laws are designed to hold employers accountable for wrongful termination; discrimination; harassment; retaliatory conduct; denial of family and medical care leave; denial of pregnancy disability leave; and failure to provide reasonable accommodation for individuals who have disabilities. California’s Labor Code and Industrial Welfare Commission Orders further protect employees against violations such as misclassification of “exempt” employees and independent contractors; failure to pay overtime; denial of meal and rest breaks; unlawful paycheck deductions; failure to reimburse business expenses; and unsafe working conditions.
