Understand Your Rights at Work

Employment Law Covers a Broad Range of Protections

Employment law governs how employers must treat their workers in areas such as hiring, wages, termination, medical leave, discrimination, harassment, and more. In California, these protections are especially strong.

Under the California Labor Code and Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA), employees are protected from unfair treatment based on protected characteristics and have the right to work in a safe and respectful environment. Violations of these laws may entitle you to legal remedies.

Common employment law violations include:

  • Discrimination based on race, gender, disability, or other protected traits
  • Unpaid wages, missed breaks, or unpaid overtime
  • Harassment or hostile workplace conditions
  • Retaliation for reporting illegal conduct or requesting leave
  • Wrongful termination for exercising protected rights

We help clients across California understand their rights and take legal action to hold employers accountable
