Labor Attorney

There is a misconception about what a labor attorney is, and what type of cases a labor attorney handles in 2014. Labor attorneys handle all legal issues that arise from an employee’s employment. Labor attorneys do not merely handle union disputes or Labor Commission cases for unpaid wages. Additionally, modern labor lawyers represent all levels of employees including supervisors, managers, professionals, and executives. What a labor lawyer is and what type of employment cases they handle is best explained through example.

Here is a partial list of the types of cases an Orange County labor attorney handle:

• Wrongful Termination of hourly employees, salaried employees, supervisors,management, and professionals
• Sexual Harassment of any employee
• Disability Discrimination
• Cancer Discrimination in employment
• Lawsuits in court or binding arbitration for any wage owed whether it is a boss refusing to issue a final paycheck, unpaid commissions on a $1,000,000 sale, overtime, prevailing wage on an Orange County government construction project, a bonus never paid, a failure to pay minimum wage, a failure to reimburse an employee for expenses incurred during employment such as airline tickets, meals while traveling
