Protecting and Defending Employers in Employment Disputes

 

     If your company is involved in a wage or overtime dispute, fighting a wrongful termination/discrimination action or defending itself in a PAGA (Private Attorney General Act) case it is important to have legal representation at every stage of the process. California law is heavily slanted in favor of employees. You need legal representation that can help you level the playing field.

We understand the impact a wage and hour claim, a wrongful termination or discrimination case can have on your business, and we will work to find a successful, cost effective resolution to your dispute.

     Our Orange County labor lawyers have more than 38 years of experience handling overtime and wage disputes for employers, fighting wrongful termination cases and defending employers against PAGA claims and discrimination actions.

     Since the recession, the number of wage and hour claims filed in California have been increasing dramatically. When an employee is fired or let go, his or her first thought is to file for unemployment. Next, he or she turns to wage and hour law to seek compensation for alleged unpaid overtime and other wage and hour violations. Within the last two years there has also been an increase in PAGA cases. In PAGA claims a private attorney files a lawsuit against a company to recover on alleged wage and hour statutory labor violations for up to all of the employees in a company.  These types of claims can have a substantial impact on your business operations and endanger the very existence of the company.
