The Dunk Law Firm understands that employees are sometimes unaware that they are entitled to certain wages and overtime pay. We counsel many clients on the rights they possess under state and federal laws. California's Labor Code contains provisions regarding employers' responsibilities with regard to wages, overtime pay, and reporting requirements. We also have an in-depth understanding of the federal Fair Labor Standards Act, which establishes minimum wage, overtime pay, and record keeping standards for employees in the private and public sectors.
Our firm also handles complex employment discrimination cases where employees are discriminated against based on their racial background, age, or mental or physical disabilities. In California, the Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA), Government Code Sections 12900 to 12996, is a significant statute that prohibits employment discrimination by employers and labor organizations. The importance of FEHA is that generally its provisions can offer more potent protections to employees facing discrimination than some federal statutes that prohibit employment discrimination.
If you have an employment discrimination matter or any other employment-related issue, contact an experienced employment litigation lawyer at The Dunk Law Firm for legal assistance.
