Employment Law
The California workplace is full of compliance issues for wage and hour laws, vacation and sick leave, immigration, privacy, employee termination, unemployment insurance, and discrimination laws. We litigate challenges to employment decisions in court or before agencies. With our legal counsel, clients try to avoid lawsuits based on allegations of discrimination, negligence, defamation or wrongful discharge theories. Our work is to minimize employer risk, implement effective employment policies, and prevent litigation. Wage and hour claims are an important issue for California employers, due to the risk of penalties for unpaid wages. The law protects employees with physical and mental disabilities so that the employer is required to conduct an interactive process to determine if it can accommodate the disability.
