Exclusive Focus on Employment Law in Northern California
Discrimination
Employment discrimination occurs when an employer makes decisions based on a protected characteristic rather than an employee’s qualifications or performance. Our team represents workers throughout Northern California, including Sacramento, Fresno, and Bakersfield, in claims involving age, disability, race, gender, pregnancy, religion, national origin, and other forms of unlawful discrimination. Whether the issue involves hiring, promotions, pay, discipline, or termination, we help employees understand whether their rights may have been violated under California law.
Harassment
Workplace harassment can create an intimidating, hostile, or offensive work environment that interferes with an employee’s ability to perform their job. Harassment may be based on race, sex, pregnancy, disability, age, religion, or another protected characteristic. Our team helps employees across Northern California evaluate harassment claims involving supervisors, coworkers, or third parties. We can assess whether the conduct may constitute unlawful harassment or whether it falls short of a legal violation.
Pregnancy & Parental Rights
California employees have important protections related to pregnancy, childbirth, bonding leave, family leave, and workplace accommodations. Employers are generally prohibited from discriminating against workers because they are pregnant, have recently given birth, or need protected leave. Our team assists employees throughout Northern California with claims involving pregnancy discrimination, denial of leave, retaliation for taking protected time off, and failures to provide legally required accommodations.
Unpaid Wages & Overtime
Employees have the right to receive the wages they earn, including overtime pay when required by law. Wage-and-hour violations can include unpaid overtime, missed meal and rest breaks, minimum wage violations, unreimbursed business expenses, and employee misclassification. Our attorneys represent workers throughout Northern California who believe they have been denied compensation they are legally owed. We work to identify violations and pursue recovery of unpaid wages and other available remedies.
Wrongful Termination
California is an at-will employment state, but employers cannot terminate employees for unlawful reasons. Wrongful termination claims may arise when a worker is fired because of a protected characteristic, for reporting misconduct, requesting accommodations, taking protected leave, or exercising other legal rights. Our team represents employees throughout Northern California working in government, healthcare, agriculture, and other industries, who believe their termination may have violated employment laws.
