At Stonebrook Law, we fight for the rights of San Jose workers. As the center of Silicon Valley, San Jose has for decades been one of the strongest workforces in the nation. California’s labor laws have meanwhile improved and expanded to protect employees.
However, when it comes down to the choice between fairness and profits, how often do tech giants and other large corporations choose to do the right thing? Violating your workplace rights even once is one time too many, and our San Jose employment lawyer is ready to step in and find creative solutions to your work-related conflicts.
San Jose has over a million residents, and that translates to
potentially thousands of employees who may find themselves wrongfully terminated, subjected to discrimination, sexually harassed, retaliated against, or otherwise wronged by their bosses. If you fall into any of these categories, who can you turn to? After all, a job is a person’s livelihood; finding it threatened or turned into a hostile environment can have devastating effects on a worker’s health.
Our experienced San Jose employment lawyer gives each of our clients the focused attention they deserve and helps them move on from these traumatizing events. To be able to return to your work and your life after being mistreated by a boss or employer, you must first find closure and right any wrongs you have been subjected to.
Our knowledgeable litigation team has the skills and wisdom to find the best answer to our clients’ problems. With over a decade of experience defending the rights of employees and millions in recoveries, we’re adept negotiators and prosecutors. From mediation to litigation and from arbitration to the courtroom, we have the experience to resolve labor disputes quickly, effectively, and most importantly—to the full satisfaction of our clients.
We take the “counsel” part of legal counsel very seriously, and we guide the workers we represent through every step of the process, making sure they stay informed about the status of their cases and educating them on the laws that protect them when necessary.
Our number one goal for all of the cases we take on is the complete and total satisfaction of our plaintiffs, and we work without pause until we get them the justice they deserve. This unmatched level of customer care and our track record of happy clients makes us a top choice for those seeking a San Jose employment lawyer. Our success lies in our passion for doing the right thing and protecting vulnerable employees who need us the most.
San Jose is the birthplace of so many important—and today, vital—modern innovations. It’s a city that sits on the cutting edge of technology and industry. After giving so much to the world, it’s only fair that San Jose’s workers get fair treatment back in return.
If you’re feeling lost because your boss has mistreated, exploited, or abused you, we can help. We cut through the dense legal jargon of labor-related legislation and help explain a plan of action to our clients in the plainest English (or Spanish, if that’s what you speak!) possible.
