San Diego Employment Lawyer

Worker-Only Employment Counsel Informed by Corporate Leadership

If you’re facing discrimination, harassment, retaliation, unpaid wages, denied leave, or termination, the employer’s explanation may not tell the whole story. We represent San Diego employees and applicants and focus exclusively on protecting workers under California employment law.

We assess what happened, when it occurred, what the employer said, and whether its stated reason matches the available records. This review can identify potentially relevant claims, evidence, agency procedures, and filing deadlines.

Employment Claims We Handle for San Diego Workers

One workplace dispute may involve several connected issues. An employee who requests a reasonable accommodation, for example, may later face retaliation or termination. We examine the full sequence rather than viewing each event in isolation.

Our representation includes matters involving:

• Workplace discrimination: Unequal treatment connected to disability, pregnancy, sex, race, age, or another legally protected characteristic.
• Harassment and sexual harassment: Unwelcome conduct that may create an unlawful working environment.
• Retaliation: Adverse action following a complaint, wage claim, leave request, accommodation request, or other protected activity.
• Wrongful termination: Discharge that may violate California law, public policy, or an employee’s protected rights.
• Wage and hour claims: Disputes involving unpaid wages, overtime violations, or equal-pay concerns.
• Whistleblower matters: Workplace consequences related to reporting conduct an employee reasonably believes is unlawful.
• Disability accommodation: Claims involving disability discrimination or reasonable accommodation under state and federal law.
• Family and medical leave: Disputes involving protected leave, reinstatement, or adverse action connected to a leave request.

These claims can involve different legal standards, evidence, administrative procedures, deadlines, and remedies. Because viability depends on the facts and applicable law, an early assessment should account for every related workplace action.

Corporate Insight Applied to Worker Representation

We represent workers only and don’t take employer-side cases. Before advocating for employees, our founder spent more than a decade in corporate leadership. That background informs how we evaluate the explanations, records, and decision-making processes employers may use to frame an employment action.

We pair legal strategy with business best practices and technology. Our proprietary case management system supports efficient communication, and bilingual assistance is available for Spanish-speaking workers.
