Dedicated Employee Rights Advocates in Bakersfield

When you head to work each day, your focus should be on performing at your best, hitting professional milestones, and supporting your family-not enduring a hostile work environment, facing discrimination, or suffering from wage theft. If your employer has violated your fundamental rights under California labor laws, finding the right legal counsel can make all the difference in reclaiming your dignity and financial security. At Webber & Egbert Employment Law, P.C., we represent employees throughout Bakersfield and Kern County who have been wronged by corporate greed, abusive management, or systemic bias. Founded by Attorney Kelsey A. Webber, our firm is built on a simple promise: we stand up to the state's largest employers and aggressively pursue justice for hard-working Californians.

Our Focused Practice Areas

California Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA) and state labor codes offer some of the strongest worker protections in the United States. However, these laws are complex and require deep litigation experience to enforce. Our legal team specializes in employee representation across several core areas:

• Wrongful termination: We hold companies accountable when they mask illegal firings as layoffs, restructuring, or performance-based terminations.
• Workplace discrimination: Our firm represents workers targeted because of their race, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, disability, pregnancy, or age.
• Sexual harassment: We provide safe, supportive, and aggressive legal action to stop hostile work environments and hold harassers and employers liable.
• Wage and hour violations: We fight back against unpaid overtime, missed meal and rest breaks, misclassification as independent contractors, and stolen tips.
• Whistleblower retaliation: If you reported tax fraud, safety violations, or financial misconduct, we protect your rights under the California Whistleblower Act.
• FMLA & medical leave: We stand up for workers who have been retaliated against for taking legal, job-protected medical or family leaves.
