■  Wrongful termination

As Monterey County’s respected wrongful termination lawyers, we review whether a firing is acceptable under at-will employment laws or if it violates an employee’s rights.

■  Workplace retaliation

California workers have a right to report illegal conduct or unfair treatment in the workplace. If they are let go, assigned different duties, or given a pay cut in response, it may be a form of illegal retaliation. 

■  Discrimination and harassment

Many laborers are protected against workplace discrimination and harassment. Contact us if you believe your unfair treatment is based on characteristics like your race, sex, national origin, age, religion, or disability. 

■  Wage theft

Employers may unfairly withhold someone’s hard-earned wages. You may have a wage theft case if your job grants you overtime pay, but you do not receive the full compensation for overtime hours. 

■  Family or medical leaves of absence 

Consult a workplace dispute lawyer if your employer denies your right to a leave of absence under certain conditions. Their actions may violate the rules of the Family and Medical Leave Act. 

Don’t hesitate to reach out if you’re dealing with a hostile work environment or mistreatment in the workplace. Let a seasoned attorney review the information and determine if you can take legal action against an employer.
