At the Westlake Law Group, Attorney Constance Zarkowski can help you understand your legal rights as an employee and explore options you may have against your employer for their role in your sexual harassment, discrimination, wrongful termination, or employee misclassification (resulting in underpayment or lack of benefits).
Damages for sexual and employee harassment claims can be high, and employers often deny wrong doing and will even protect harassers instead of doing what is right. An experienced sexual harassment attorney can help you document the occurrences of harassment and the resulting emotional and economic harm. By proving the he guilt of the employer, a lawyer can work to secure a fair compensation for the victim. If you have been sexually harassed on the job, contact Ms. Zarkowski at the Westlake Law Group today.
A victim of employment discrimination and retaliation must file his or her charge with the Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA). The filing of an FEHA charge is a prerequisite to a lawsuit for discrimination or retaliation. An employee must file a charge of discrimination or retaliation within 1 year of when he or she learned of the adverse employment action or harassment. The law limits the time for filing legal actions. Don't lose your rights by waiting too long to obtain advice call or email today.
An experienced attorney can advocate for your rights in negotiations with your employer, and in court. Attorney Ms. Zarkowski will fight discrimination in the workplace.
If you were illegally fired without just cause, our experienced employee rights attorney will aggressively pursue legal action against your employer. Any legal action against an employer requires a comprehensive understanding of complex state and federal laws. When you are facing a complicated employment dispute, you need trusted and experienced legal service. Ms. Zarkowski has over 10 years of experience asserting the rights of employees who have suffered wrongful termination.
If you believe your employer is liable for deceptive timekeeping practices which result in unpaid wages call Ms. Zarkowski to schedule a free consultation. Ms. Zarkowski handles wage and hour claims involving refusal to provide uninterrupted meal and rest periods and failure to pay minimum wages or overtime.
Other deceptive practices are employee misclassifications. Commonly employees are misclassified as exempt (salary paid) employees rather than nonexempt (hourly paid) employees in order for the employer to avoid paying overtime and other wages. In some cases, a business may hire you as a contractor, but treat you las an employee without benefits. Ms. Zarkowski works hard to hold employers accountable for the misclassification of employees and recover damages owed.
