Types of Employment Law Cases
Employees have the right to work in an environment free from unlawful discrimination, retaliation, and wage violations. If your Burbank employer ignored these legal obligations, our attorney pursues claims against employers who violate employment laws.
Wrongful Termination
This is one of the most common types of employment disputes. Although the state recognizes at-will employment, employers cannot terminate you for unlawful reasons such as race, gender, age, disability, religion, or sexual orientation. You may also have a claim if your employer fired you for reporting illegal conduct or engaging in protected workplace activities.
Workplace Harassment
Harassment may include repeated unwanted conduct, offensive comments, or other behavior that creates a hostile work environment. Sexual harassment often involves unwelcome advances, inappropriate comments, or requests for sexual favors tied to employment decisions.
Wage and Hour Violations
Wage and hour violations occur when employers fail to follow state laws governing pay and working hours. You may recover damages if your employer required you to work off the clock, denied you overtime pay, or misclassified you as an independent contractor.
In these situations, our attorney could review your situation and determine whether your employer’s actions violated applicable employment laws.
