Standing Up Against Sexual Harassment and Hostile Work Environments

Sexual misconduct in the workplace inflicts lasting emotional and professional damage. The Armstrong Law Firm has built a sterling reputation as tenacious harassment lawyers, confronting abusive supervisors, executives, and indifferent human resources departments. The legal team handles:

• Representation for victims of quid pro quo harassment, where promotions, job security, or raises are conditioned upon unwanted romantic or sexual conduct.
• Comprehensive claims against pervasive hostile work environments involving unwanted touching, graphic comments, and offensive electronic messages.
• Vigorous protection against supervisor retaliation, demotions, and negative performance reviews following formal complaints.
• Assertive litigation in Alameda County Superior Court and federal district courts to secure compensation for lost earnings, emotional distress, and statutory penalties.

Combating Workplace Discrimination and Unlawful Discharges

California Fair Employment and Housing Act provides some of the strongest protections in the nation, yet workplace bias remains widespread. As dedicated workplace discrimination lawyers, The Armstrong Law Firm takes decisive legal action against systemic bias based on race, gender, pregnancy, sexual orientation, disability, age, and national origin. Furthermore, the firm serves as skilled wrongful termination lawyers, representing professionals and hourly wage earners who were fired after blowing the whistle on illegal corporate practices, requesting medical leave, or demanding unpaid compensation. The firm also assists departing executives with severance package reviews, positioning workers to maximize exit benefits while preserving legal claims.

Resolving Wage and Hour Violations

Fair pay is fundamental to worker dignity. Working alongside experienced wage and hour lawyers, the practice holds employers liable for misclassifying workers as exempt, failing to pay overtime premiums, withholding meal and rest breaks, and refusing to pay minimum wage under California Labor Code regulations.
