YOU HAVE MORE POWER THAN YOU REALIZE LET'S FIGHT FOR WHAT'S RIGHT

EMPLOYMENT LAW ATTORNEY IN SAN JOSE, CALIFORNIA

As an employee in California, you have certain rights in place to protect you from workplace mistreatment and help you establish financial security on behalf of you and your family. When those rights are violated by your employer, it is up to you to take a stand.

Before you make a move, though, discuss your situation with an experienced employment law attorney. That way, you will have a complete understanding of your rights and legal options, and you will have someone on your side who knows how to present your case in a way that appeals to California courts.

DISCRIMINATION

California and Federal law make it an unlawful employment practice to treat employees differently because of immutable characteristics such as race, age, gender, ethnicity, national origin, sexual orientation, a disability, or pregnancy. You have legal options if you have been discriminated against or experienced retaliation for opposing discrimination.

SEXUAL HARASSMENT

Sexual harassment can be one of the most oppressive forms of workplace abuse. Whether it occurs in the form of quid pro quo sexual harassment (if you respond to sexual advances, you'll get preferential treatment), or as a result of a sexually hostile work environment, you have the right to take legal action.

By standing up for yourself now, you could be creating a workplace free of sexual harassment, which in turn protects others from experiencing the same treatment in the future.

DON’T LET YOUR EMPLOYER
PUSH YOU AROUND

WHISTLEBLOWER RETALIATION

There are many laws that regulate employer conduct, from the Sarbanes-Oxley Act that protects investors from accounting-related fraud to the Occupational Safety and Health Act that enforces workplace safety. If you have opposed or reported illegal conduct in the workplace, you are protected from retaliation.

In other words, if you have spoken out against your employer’s illegal or unethical behavior, your employer does not have the right to fire you or otherwise lash out at you.

MEDICAL FAMILY LEAVE LAWS

State and federal laws protect an employee's right to take medical or family leave. If you are taking leave to care for a medical condition — whether it is your own or a family member’s — you may have the right to return to the same position after returning from leave.

GETTING WORKPLACE JUSTICE IN SILICON VALLEY

Everyone deserves a safe and professional work environment. If you’ve experienced anything less, don’t sit back and allow the injustice to go on. Instead, give me a call, tell me what happened, then work with me to expose the problem and hold the right people accountable. By doing so, you could get compensated for your trouble and prevent future injustice for others.
