Wrongful Termination
California is an at-will employment state, but firing an employee for an illegal reason is still unlawful — even without a written contract.
Learn more →Workplace Discrimination
California's Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA) prohibits discrimination based on a broad list of protected characteristics — broader than federal law.
Learn more →Sexual Harassment
California law recognizes both quid pro quo and hostile work environment sexual harassment, and — unlike many discrimination claims — can hold individual harassers personally liable.
Learn more →Retaliation
It is illegal for an employer to punish an employee for engaging in legally protected activity — even if the underlying complaint is ultimately not proven.
Learn more →Whistleblower
California's whistleblower protection statute covers employees who report suspected legal violations internally or to a government agency, or who refuse to participate in illegal activity.
Learn more →Hostile Work Environment
Severe or pervasive conduct based on a protected characteristic that makes a workplace abusive is illegal under California law — separate from (but often overlapping with) harassment and discrimination claims.
Learn more →Wage & Hour Violations
California's wage and hour laws are among the most protective in the country — covering overtime, meal and rest breaks, and equal pay for substantially similar work.
Learn more →Family & Medical Leave Violations
The California Family Rights Act (CFRA) provides job-protected leave for a serious health condition, new child bonding, or caring for a family member — and covers smaller employers than the federal FMLA.
Learn more →Disability Accommodation
California requires employers to engage in a good-faith interactive process and provide reasonable accommodation for a known disability, absent undue hardship.
Learn more →Kaiser Permanente Employees
A firm focus built over two decades representing physicians and employees of Kaiser Permanente and its affiliated medical groups.
