Our attorneys have successfully tried, arbitrated, and settled significant cases for both employees and employers. Eulalio J.

Employment
We believe that our diverse practice gives us a greater understanding of, and sensitivity to, workplace issues over firms which represent only workers or only businesses. This experience enables us to focus on the strengths and weaknesses of cases and allow us to assist our clients to resolve matters, often without the need for litigation. We also help employers comply with California's complex employment laws and regulations, and to resolve disputes with their employees. We provide advice regarding discipline and human resources issues. We help employers to implement employment policies and practices that prevent lawsuits. We defend employers in court and before the Labor Commissioner in cases with potential exposures ranging into millions of dollars.
Business
As a business executive, you are responsible for or otherwise vested in your company’s contractual relationships with other businesses. We will work with you to draft business contracts that promote and protect your interests, and we will keep an all-important eye on enforceability (where many agreements fail) as well. Furthermore, should it become necessary, we will fight aggressively to enforce your contractual and other associated rights in the event other parties breach your agreements. We will work exhaustively to protect you from all potential liabilities, and ensure that you fully realize your goals in entering into and fulfilling your business transactions.
