California
Employment Litigation for Employees

At Seligson Law, we believe every worker deserves dignity, safety, and respect in the workplace. When those rights are violated, through discrimination, harassment, retaliation, or wage theft, our California employment law team is here to listen, take action, and help you pursue justice.

California’s employment laws offer some of the strongest worker protections in the nation, but even with these safeguards, violations still happen. If your rights have been ignored or violated, we’re ready to fight for you.

“When we were applying for our New York license, we didn’t know what we didn’t know. Ken and his team walked us through every step, flagged issues before they became problems, and kept us on track through a pretty intense process. We felt taken care of the whole way.”

— Debbie Vladic, Dime Industries

Advocating for Employees Across California

No one should have to endure unfair treatment at work. If your employer has denied you wages, discriminated against you, or retaliated after you spoke up, our firm is ready to help. California law protects workers under statutes like the California Labor Code, the Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA), and the California Family Rights Act (CFRA), and we put those laws to work for you.

  • Wage and hour violations, including unpaid overtime, missed breaks, and inaccurate paystubs
  • Minimum wage violations
  • Employee misclassification
  • Discrimination based on race, gender, disability, religion, sexual orientation, and other protected categories

FAQs

What types of employment cases do you handle?

We represent employees in discrimination, harassment, wage and hour violations, wrongful termination, and retaliation claims. We also defend employers facing these issues.

Who can file a workplace complaint in California?

Any employee, whether working full-time, part-time, or even independent contractors, can file a complaint if they believe their rights under California or federal law have been violated.

How do I know if I have a valid employment law claim?

If you’ve been treated unfairly at work, it’s worth speaking with an attorney. We’ll review your experience during a confidential consultation and explain your legal options.

What laws protect employees in California?

Key protections include the California Labor Code, FEHA, CFRA, and federal laws like Title VII. These laws address discrimination, harassment, leave rights, and retaliation.

How long do I have to file a claim?

Deadlines vary by case type. Some claims must be filed within one year or less, so it’s important to act quickly if you suspect a violation.

Can employers take action against me if I file a complaint?

Employers are not allowed to punish you for reporting unlawful behavior. Retaliation such as termination, demotion, reduced hours, or workplace harassment is illegal under California law. If your employer takes action against you for speaking up, we can help you assert your rights and pursue legal remedies.

What if I’m not a full-time employee?

You may still be protected under California law even if you’re a part-time worker or an independent contractor misclassified by your employer.
