Cases We Represent for Workers in Sonoma County

 

At D.Law, we provide legal representation across a wide range of cases. If your rights have been violated at work, we may be able to assist you.
These are a few common types of cases we represent for Sonoma County workers:

■  Workplace discrimination claims

Discrimination is illegal at the state and federal levels. If your employer is treating you unfairly because you belong to a certain protected class, our attorneys can help you dispute this treatment and explore your legal options for seeking damages.

■  Wrongful termination cases

California is an at-will employment state, but employers are barred from terminating workers for discriminatory reasons, retaliation, or violations of labor or union contracts. If you believe you were unlawfully terminated, speak with our employment attorneys in Sonoma County about your case.

■  Wage and hour violations

Has your employer failed to pay you the agreed-upon wages, incorrectly recorded your hours, neglected to pay overtime, or otherwise violated your rights under wage and hour laws? We can help you pursue a case to recover unpaid wages.

■  Harassment in the workplace

Making offensive remarks, jokes, or gestures based on a protected characteristic can constitute harassment. Whether you experienced sexual harassment in the workplace or work in a hostile environment due to prejudice against your race, we can help you explore your legal options.

■  Workplace retaliation cases

Employers are prohibited from taking negative action against workers for upholding their employment rights. If you were terminated or demoted after reporting a legal violation, speak with our workplace retaliation lawyers about whether your employer’s actions may be considered retaliation.

■  Leave of absence disputes

If you qualify for job-protected leave under the FMLA or other legal frameworks, your employer is generally required to grant the leave and hold your position or a comparable position until you return. If your job has significantly changed or you have been fired after taking protected leave, talk to our firm about your options.
