Davtyan Law Firm (d.law) is anxious to begin helping employees in the Long Beach, CA area after opening its newest location Downtown. DLaw’s flagship office opened over seven years ago to help fight for the rights of the working class in the Los Angeles area.

The employment law firm achieved industry-leading stats in 2022 and looks to surpass them in 2023. DLaw attorneys focus on supporting all Californians in navigating employment issues, such as workplace harassment, discrimination, unpaid wages, and wrongful termination. Their dedication and determination is what sets them apart from other employment law firms in the area.

Founder and Managing Attorney Emil Davtyan is eager to see how his firm’s experience and skillset will help workers in and around the Long Beach, CA area. The entire team at DLaw brings experienced and conscientious legal services to all employees in this region. The firm works tirelessly to provide approachable help to those that need it most.

DLaw also has offices in Los AngelesSan DiegoSan FranciscoFresnoSacramentoChicoSan Luis ObispoLake TahoeSan BernardinoMontereyStockton, and San Jose to protect all Californians from abusive employers.

Since its inception in 2015, DLaw’s 80-plus lawyers and staff have helped hundreds of thousands of California workers recover nearly a quarter of $1 billion from their employers. To date, the firm has helped pursue nearly 3,000 cases.

DLaw has grown its staff with close to three dozen new hires across a variety of full-time staff positions since the beginning of 2022. The increase in staff further allows DLaw to provide unparalleled support to those who need help.

“Hourly and low-wage workers are the backbone of our society, working tirelessly to keep things moving forward,” said Emil. “Unfortunately, these hardworking individuals often face tough challenges and struggles, and can sometimes feel like they have no voice. We want them to know that although employment law can be intimidating, we’re here to help. Whether you’ve experienced unfair treatment at work, or just need someone to talk to, we’re always just a phone call or click away.”

DLaw’s newest office is located in Downtown Long Beach just steps away from Lincoln Park, at 111 W. Ocean Blvd., 4th Floor Long Beach, California, 90802.

 

DLaw specializes in the following fields of employment law:

 

Wage & Hours Claims — California has strict laws regarding lunch breaks, rest breaks, overtime, expense reimbursements, off-the-clock work, minimum wage, etc. These laws change frequently and can be confusing.

Workplace Harassment & Discrimination — Employers are not allowed to discriminate or harass, based on certain protected classes such as race, age, and gender. In addition, California protects more classes including immigration status, sexual orientation, and others.

Wrongful Termination — There are several types of wrongful termination including those based on discrimination, contract violations, sexual harassment, and workplace retaliation.

Protected Leave Violations — California employees are entitled to a variety of protected leaves including FMLA (family and medical leave), new parental leaves, military service leave, and more. California’s leave laws protect employees from unlawful discrimination, harassment, or retaliation as a result of requesting or taking protected leave. Employees have a right to take these kinds of leaves, and employers cannot take certain actions just because they exercised that right.

Workplace Retaliation — Workplace retaliation occurs when a business takes an adverse action against the employee who initially filed a complaint. If an employer punishes or fires an employee for exercising his or her employment rights, it is considered workplace retaliation and it may be illegal.

Are you a California employee who is treated unfairly at work? If so, please call 888-TRY-DLAW, visit the d.law website or email info@davtyanlaw.com. A representative is standing by 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to help with your employment law legal needs.

Your Rights as a Transgender Worker in California
Transitioning is never easy, especially when you work in an unsupportive environment. Many transgender people experience discrimination in the workplace. With the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the federal government made it illegal to discriminate against someone based on their race, color, religion, national origin, or sex – but while many interpret the law as protecting transgender or non-conforming gender, it does not offer specific protections for this group of workers. Fortunately, California laws detail more specific protection for this growing community of employees.
