Forward-Thinking Legal Guidance: Employment

Navigating the intricacies of employment law is no small feat—it is a vast, intricate area that touches every facet of the employer-employee dynamic. We stand alongside employers, offering crucial guidance on hiring procedures, wage and hour matters, performance evaluations, and the interactive process for disability accommodations. Much of our work is dedicated to advising educational institutions, ensuring they uphold various employment-related laws and regulations. These encompass California’s Fair Employment and Housing Act, the historic 1964 Civil Rights Act, the Americans with Disabilities Act, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, and vital statutes like the Family and Medical Leave Act, the California Family Rights Act, and the Fair Labor Standards Act, among others.
