Employment Law Representation in Los Angeles
Protecting the Rights of Employees in Southern California
Employers do not always treat their employees fairly. Wrongful termination, harassment, and discrimination are still rampant problems in the U.S. workforce. Employees often feel helpless to fight back in these situations, but that is far from the truth. Workers and unions have fought long and hard to establish workers’ rights laws in this country. If you bring a legitimate complaint against an employer, there are laws that protect you from possible retaliation from your place of employment.
