Wrongful Termination and Unlawful Workplace Retaliation

California employment statutes afford robust safeguards, yet corporate employers frequently violate employee rights during dismissals. If you have been abruptly discharged after speaking out against misconduct, our office provides prompt legal defense. Serving as compassionate wrongful termination lawyers and contract lawyers, attorney Roberts investigates employer motives, secures critical workplace documentation, and seeks full restitution for lost compensation, benefits, and emotional distress. Practice areas include:

• Defending employees dismissed in direct violation of statutory public policies and whistleblowing mandates.
• Protecting workers fired in retaliation for reporting labor code infractions, safety violations, or financial mismanagement.
• Resolving complex executive discharge matters and negotiating fair, binding severance packages.
• Handling administrative complaints before the California Civil Rights Department and the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission.

Every employee deserves a fair working environment free from hostility and prejudice. As seasoned workplace discrimination lawyers and harassment lawyers, Blair L. Roberts vigorously prosecutes cases arising under the California Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA). The firm handles hostile work environments and discriminatory actions involving disability accommodations, medical leave, pregnancy discrimination, age bias, race, gender, and sexual orientation. Through thorough case preparation and unyielding negotiation, the firm holds employers accountable for corporate indifference and illegal workplace retaliation.

California Wage and Hour Claims and Overtime Disputes

Wage theft and payroll non-compliance remain persistent challenges in Southern California businesses. When workers are denied statutory pay, seasoned wage and hour lawyers step in to recover earned income, interest, and statutory penalties. Attorney Roberts represents workers in complex compensation matters, including failure to pay minimum wage or overtime, unlawful meal and rest break denials, improper wage deductions, off-the-clock work, and fraudulent independent contractor misclassification under California AB 5 regulations.
