Employment Law

I practice employment law because jobs are important to people. If we are lucky, our job provides both financial security, as well as, professional satisfaction and pride. Employees give value to their employers and I believe they deserve to be treated fairly and in accordance with the law.

As an employee you have many legal rights! Most importantly, you have the right to be paid all your wages owed and you have the right to be free from discrimination, harassment, and retaliation. As an employee, you should not be denied a job, a better position, a raise, or any other benefit or suffer any form of discrimination, harassment, or retaliation because of your sex, gender, sexual orientation, marital status, age, disability, race, ethnicity, national origin, religion, or the language that you speak. California employment law protects employees regardless of their documentation status.
