Stonebrook Law has a full-service San Diego employment lawyer who represents employees both in and out of the courtroom. We compassionately and fearlessly pursue justice for our clients—many of whom have faced discrimination, harassment, or other illegal labor practices—to ensure we get them the best possible outcome.
You may not realize it, but being able to work in a safe and comfortable environment (and through that work, provide for yourself and your family) is a basic human right that is all too frequently violated in California.
Since it was incorporated in 1850, San Diego has enjoyed the benefits of being host to a wide spectrum of industries, from tourism to tuna canning. This city has always been known for its
kindness to big businesses and corporations with Forbes calling it in 2015 the best place to launch a new startup. But where does that leave its workers?
California has some of the most comprehensive protections for employees in all the United States, but what happens when companies don’t abide by the laws?
In the best-case scenario, employees who have had their workplace rights violated will feel justifiable frustration and anger; in the worst-case, those emotions can turn into fear, anxiety, and depression. That’s why it’s best to resolve labor-related conflicts early and quickly, and the legal team at Stonebrook Law has the experience and knowledge to find the best solution to each case we take on, fast.
We’ve been doing this for over a decade, and our background and expertise has been instrumental to obtaining the best outcome for the clients we have served. But you don’t have to take our word for it; for a better idea of how we have helped California’s employees recover from the wage theft, racial discrimination, whistleblower retaliation, sexual harassment, and other labor law violations their bosses have subjected them to, check out the testimonials from our satisfied clients!
You can see for yourself that our excellent reputation comes from more than just our work in the courtroom. Our San Francisco employment lawyer is proud of the impeccable level of customer service we provide for each of our clients. We meet with every plaintiff we represent, review their case with them, explain the laws that protect them, and develop winning strategies tailored to their specific circumstances.
We know that getting the best usually means paying for the best, and you might be wondering how you can afford the legal representation you need to face a big corporation in trial. If you have any financial concerns, don’t worry; our San Diego employment lawyer takes all of our cases on a contingency basis, which means we collect no costs or fees unless we obtain a recovery on your behalf.
No amount of money can ever undo the damage done by a traumatic experience in the workplace, but it can help a maligned worker recover from that trauma, stabilize their living situation, and access the time and space they need to find new employment in an environment that will allow them to flourish. We can’t erase the past misconduct of your employer, but we can help you find closure, move on, and get back to work.
