California Employment Law Attorney

The Employment Lawyers to Trust in Southern California

Employers are subject to strict federal and state regulations regarding wages, work conditions and discriminatory practices. If you are involved in a dispute over violations of employment and wage and hour laws, you have the law on your side.

At the law offices of Fernandez & Lauby LLP, we provide experienced and client-focused representation for workers in employment law conflicts. Operating since 1998, our attorneys are experienced litigators with a proven background for providing effective client service both in and out of the courtroom.

We understand employment law and work closely with clients to develop a range of strategies to resolve your case positively. We can pursue your claim in state or federal court, and have developed the knowledge to be effective with a strong reputation for dependable representation.

Handling State and Federal Employment Law Claims • Contingency Fees

We offer a free consultation and handle all employment litigation cases on a contingency basis. You only pay attorneys fees if we help you recover money damages for your claim. Our attorneys have successfully provided employment law representation and recovered significant awards for clients in the areas of:
