Free Case ReviewWhat Our Long Beach Employment Lawyers Handle
Los Angeles County employers often count on workers not knowing their rights. Our job is to make sure
they don’t get away with it. We represent employees in cases involving:
Wrongful Termination
Fired for taking protected medical leave, requesting accommodations, or reporting workplace violations? That’s wrongful termination. We build strong claims to help you recover lost wages, emotional damages, and your reputation.
Wage & Hour Violations
Unpaid overtime. Missed breaks. “Off-the-clock” work. Illegal tip pooling. These are everyday issues in Long Beach’s restaurant, retail, and shipping sectors — and we don’t let employers get away with them.
Disability Discrimination & Leave Retaliation
If your employer denied accommodations, failed to engage in the interactive process, or punished you for taking CFRA/FMLA leave — you may have claims under FEHA, ADA, and the California Labor Code.
Sexual Harassment & Hostile Work Environment
We represent workers subjected to sexual comments, inappropriate behavior, or retaliation for saying “no.” No industry is immune — and no one should have to endure abuse at work.
Pregnancy & Family Caregiver Discrimination
Expecting a baby? Caring for a sick parent or child? You’re protected under state and federal law. If your job was threatened because of your family obligations, let us help you fight back.
Whistleblower Retaliation
If you were fired, demoted, or harassed after reporting safety violations, illegal conduct, wage theft, or discrimination, you may be entitled to double damages and attorneys’ fees under Labor Code §1102.5 and the Whistleblower Protection Act.
