Employment Law · California
If you’ve been underpaid, wrongfully terminated, harassed, or retaliated against at work, you may have a case. We represent employees in California, and you pay nothing unless we win.
Something happened at work. Maybe you were fired and the reason didn’t add up. Maybe your paychecks never looked right but you couldn’t prove why. Maybe someone said something, or did something, and when you reported it, things got worse instead of better.
You’re not sure if what happened to you is illegal. You just know it wasn’t right, and you don’t know what to do next.
That’s exactly where most of our clients start.
I represent employees in California who have been underpaid, misclassified, wrongfully terminated, harassed, or retaliated against by their employers. I handle individual claims, class actions, and PAGA representative actions. My experience includes the full range of employment disputes: wage and hour violations, meal and rest break claims, discrimination, sexual harassment, and whistleblower retaliation.
Before I file anything, I listen. I want to understand what happened to you, what it cost you, and what a realistic outcome looks like. Not every situation is a lawsuit, and I’ll tell you that directly. But when you do have a case, I pursue it aggressively and I don’t stop until we’ve gotten the best result the facts support.
You pay nothing out of pocket. I work on contingency, which means my fee comes out of what we recover. If we don’t win, you don’t owe me anything. The consultation is free, confidential, and carries no obligation.
You Earned It. They Owe It.
Unpaid overtime. Missed meal and rest breaks. Off-the-clock work. Misclassification as exempt or as an independent contractor. These violations are common, they’re often systemic, and California law provides strong remedies including back pay, penalties, interest, and attorneys’ fees. If your employer isn’t paying you correctly, the law is on your side.
Fired for the Wrong Reasons? That’s Not Legal.
California is an at-will state, but “at-will” doesn’t mean “for any reason.” Employers cannot fire you for discriminatory reasons, for reporting legal violations, for taking protected leave, or for exercising your rights as an employee. If your termination doesn’t add up, there may be a claim behind it.
Your Identity Is Not a Liability.
California law prohibits workplace discrimination based on race, gender, age, disability, sexual orientation, religion, national origin, and other protected characteristics. Discrimination doesn’t always look like an explicit slur or a written policy. It often shows up in who gets promoted, who gets disciplined, whose complaints get taken seriously, and whose don’t.
No One Should Have to Endure This to Keep a Job.
Whether it’s unwanted advances, inappropriate comments, or a work environment that tolerates abuse, California law is clear: employers are responsible for preventing and addressing sexual harassment. If your employer knew and did nothing, or if the harassment came from someone with power over your career, you have legal options.
You Spoke Up. They Punished You. That’s Illegal.
If you reported wage theft, safety violations, discrimination, or harassment, and your employer responded by demoting, disciplining, or terminating you, that’s retaliation. California has some of the strongest whistleblower and anti-retaliation protections in the country. The law protects employees who do the right thing.
