Wage and Hour Disputes and Overtime Recovery

California enforces robust worker protections, yet wage theft remains widespread. The firm handles individual and class claims to recover income wrongfully withheld by employers. Key areas include:

• Denial of statutory meal breaks and rest periods.

Wrongful Termination and Retaliation Claims

Although California is an at-will state, firing employees for unlawful reasons violates public policy. If you suspect an illegal discharge, consult an experienced wrongful termination lawyer promptly. The practice handles claims involving:

• Retaliation for reporting safety violations, wage theft, or illegal conduct.
• Unlawful discharge after requesting family or medical leave.
• Retaliation following workers compensation filings.
• Review and negotiation of severance agreements.

Every employee deserves a professional workplace free from bias and hostility.
