The Spivak Law Firm - Los Angeles, CA
Dedicated Employee Rights Advocates in Downtown LA
The Spivak Law Firm is a prominent employment law practice headquartered in the Financial District of Downtown Los Angeles. Founded in 2002 by Principal Attorney David G. Spivak, the firm has dedicated over two decades to fighting for the rights of workers across California. David Spivak, a seasoned litigator who has been practicing since 1995, built the firm on the principle that no employee should be exploited by their employer, regardless of their job title or immigration status. The firm is well-known for handling complex class action lawsuits and representative actions under the Private Attorneys General Act (PAGA), having recovered millions of dollars in unpaid wages and penalties for thousands of employees.
Focusing on Workers' Rights
The firm exclusively represents employees, never employers. This singular focus allows their attorneys to stay at the cutting edge of California's pro-worker labor laws.
- Wage and Hour Disputes: Recovering unpaid overtime, double-time, and minimum wages for employees forced to work "off the clock" or misclassified as independent contractors.
- Meal and Rest Breaks: Holding employers accountable for failing to provide legally required 30-minute meal periods and 10-minute rest breaks.
- Wrongful Termination: Representing individuals fired in violation of public policy, including retaliation for reporting safety violations or illegal activities.
- Discrimination and Harassment: Fighting for victims of workplace bias based on race, gender, sexual orientation, disability, or pregnancy.
- Medical Leave Violations: protecting employees who have been denied leave under the Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA) or California Family Rights Act (CFRA).
No Win, No Fee Guarantee
The Spivak Law Firm operates on a strict contingency fee basis. This means clients pay absolutely no upfront costs or hourly fees. The firm advances all litigation expenses and only gets paid if they successfully win the case. This model ensures that low-wage workers have access to the same high-quality legal representation as wealthy corporations. The firm is proud to be bilingual, offering full legal services in English and Spanish, ensuring that language is never a barrier to justice.
"We don't just file lawsuits; we send a message. When employers break the law, we make them pay."
