Many of our clients work in regulated industries (such as health care, financial services and technology), and that presents a further challenge in managing risk arising out of employment matters. When employment disputes mature into litigation, our clients rely on us to manage their litigation portfolios effectively and efficiently.

HR matters often require swift and immediate action. We regularly act as on-call troubleshooters to help clients implement immediate solutions that minimize ongoing risk. We routinely advise on disciplinary matters and terminations and assist in reviewing and drafting supporting documentation. We also conduct investigations to help get to the bottom of risky employment issues with an eye toward risk mitigation and early resolution. We also proactively help develop workplace policies and protocols aimed at best positioning clients to handle workplace issues as they arise.

On the litigation front, we routinely defend clients in cases that run the gamut of California employment claims, from single-plaintiff wrongful termination claims, to representative PAGA claims and class actions. We also help clients protect their valuable intellectual property when high-level employees leave. We have secured critical preliminary injunctions halting former executives from misappropriating propriety assets during pending litigation.
