Wrongful Termination
“Wrongful termination” is a phrase that is often misused and may be confusing. People often believe that they have a lawsuit for wrongful termination any time they have been fired unjustly. However, wrongful termination from a legal perspective describes a situation in which the employer violates a specific law, public policy, or the terms of an employment contract by firing you.
Sexual Harassment
Sexual harassment anywhere – at work, at school, on the street, etc. – is not just about sex. It is about the harasser being hostile toward the victim or abusing power over the victim because of the victim’s gender. In California, “gender” includes one’s sexual orientation and gender identity and expression. .
Wage Law Violations
If your employer has not paid you properly for every hour worked, you may have a legal claim for unpaid wages. Federal, state, and even local laws govern wages and hours. These laws determine how much employees must be paid, which hours count as work time, how meal and rest breaks are treated, and much more
