Employment Law Disputes

As an employee, you are subject to your employer's ability to adhere to the law. Your employer must follow a host of both federal and state laws when dealing with you. When they fail to comply with applicable laws and regulations, they can be held liable for your injuries. At the law office of Peter K. Levine, A Professional Law Corporation we represent people facing a variety of employment law issues including:

• Wrongful termination: This occurs when an employer terminates you based on an illegal consideration.
• Discrimination: Discrimination takes a variety of forms that result in an employer favoring one individual characteristic of a person over another. The common forms of discrimination relate to race, sex, gender, national origin, religion, and pregnancy.
• Sexual Harassment
• Civil Rights: Under both state and federal law, an employer must not base employment decisions on a person's membership in a suspect class or other protected class.
• Whistleblowers: The government favors employees coming forward to report illegal activity by their employer. In order to protect these whistleblowers, the law makes it illegal to terminate someone who reports an employer.
• Wage and Hour Law: Under the Fair Labor Standards Act and California law, a person must be paid a fair hourly wage or salary depending on their job classification.
