Los Angeles Job Lawyers for Wrongful Termination, Harassment and Unpaid Wages
Since 1993 firm founder Karl Gerber has handled more than 2,000 separate California employment cases with a high rate of success in the binding arbitrations and jury trials he has first chaired. We represent employees only, on a contingency: we are paid a fee only when and if we win, and we advance all costs. Our job lawyers handle wrongful termination, workplace discrimination (age, disability, national origin, pregnancy, race, sexual orientation), sexual harassment, medical leave and FMLA cases, breach of employment contract, unpaid wages and overtime, and firings after a work injury.
To speak with a job lawyer about your situation, call (818) 783-7300. Consultations are confidential.
Fired, demoted or pushed out and not sure whether it was legal? Most terminations in California are "at will," but an employer may not fire you because of a protected characteristic, because you took a medical or family leave, because you reported illegal conduct, or because you filed a workers' compensation claim. The facts matter: what was said, what was written, who else was treated differently, and how quickly the termination followed your complaint or your leave. Our attorneys review those facts with you and tell you plainly whether you have a case worth pursuing.
