PROTECTING THE RIGHTS OF
EMPLOYMENT RELATED VICTIMS

An employer-employee relationship almost always involves some power disparity.
An employer has the power to:

 * Decide whether an applicant or candidate gets a job
 * Fire workers
 * Provide employees with access to training and development resources
 * Protect employees from harassment and other forms of misconduct in the
   workplace
 * Determine whether employees deserve promotions or raises

If you are an employee facing an issue with your employer, the experienced &
skilled attorneys at JML Law are here to help you. Contact us for your free
consultation.

In California, a strict labor code complements federal law to ensure that
employers are not permitted to abuse their powers. This is not to say that
abuses never occur. On the contrary, violations of employment law are somewhat
common.

Employees who have lost their jobs or been mistreated when their employers
violated the law can often seek reinstatement or compensation by filing claims
or lawsuits. When doing so, they should keep in mind that proving an employer
has broken the law can often be very difficult without access to the proper
resources.

Don’t assume this means you should not take legal action if you believe your
employer has wronged you. It simply means your chances of winning your case will
be much greater if you have professional assistance from legal experts who have
experience handling cases like yours.

That is exactly what you will find at JML Law. Our Los Angeles employment law
attorneys are well equipped to offer the aggressive representation you deserve
in these circumstances. We will review your case for free, answer any questions
you may have about your case, and help you hold an employer accountable if it
appears they have violated employment law.

EMPLOYMENT LAW CASES
IN CALIFORNIA

Again, California’s Labor Code is very worker-friendly. Its various laws and
provisions regarding the degree to which they prioritize workers’ rights are
among the strongest in the entire country.

Unfortunately, some employers ignore the law. The following are several examples
of how they may do so:



 

Discriminating during the hiring process
An employer is legally required to make hiring decisions based on the actual
qualifications and merits of applicants and candidates. An employer is not
permitted to consider the following types of factors when determining whether or
not someone should get a job:



 * Age
 * Gender
 * Race
 * Ethnicity or national origin
 * Sexual orientation
 * Gender identity
 * Religion
 * Disability
 * Marital status

Regardless, employers and hiring managers are human beings. That means they may
be biased against certain types of applicants. For instance, an employer may
believe that older job applicants will be less likely to thrive in certain roles
when compared to younger applicants. This may result in a pattern of denying
jobs to candidates over a certain age.

Terminating employees for illegitimate reasons

Just as employers cannot allow bias to influence their hiring decisions, they
must also not let their personal preferences play a role in their decisions to
terminate employees. Again, laws don’t always stop all employers from engaging
in illegal behavior. Some employers fire workers for discriminatory reasons.

Of course, if an employer is accused of discrimination after terminating a
worker, they almost certainly won’t admit they were in the wrong. It’s far more
likely they will fabricate why an employee was fired.

This highlights the importance of enlisting a Los Angeles employment law
attorney’s help when filing a claim or lawsuit against an employer you believe
has broken the law. To prove that you have a valid case, conducting a thorough
investigation will often be necessary. This is a task the experts at a
California employment law firm can assist you with.

 

Retaliating against employees

Both California law and federal law protect the rights of employees who may
report their employers for unsafe, unethical, or illegal practices.
Additionally, if law enforcement agencies or regulatory groups are already
investigating a company for wrongdoing, employees should feel comfortable
cooperating with investigators if they are asked to do so.

It is illegal for an employer to retaliate against any employee for being a
whistleblower or cooperating with an investigation. Regardless, workplace
retaliation is a consistent problem across a range of industries.

Retaliation in the workplace can take many forms. They include (but are not
necessarily limited to) the following:

 * Assigning whistleblowers undesirable shifts or duties
 * Firing whistleblowers or demoting them
 * Not giving whistleblowers promotions or raises they have earned
 * Excluding whistleblowers from training sessions
 * Disciplining whistleblowers more harshly than others

It is not always clear whether an employer has engaged in retaliation. If you
suspect that your employer has retaliated against you for reporting them to law
enforcement or regulatory agencies, review your case with the team at our
California employment law firm. We will help you better understand your legal
options in these circumstances.

Be aware that this is not an exhaustive list. The best way to determine if your
employer’s conduct or actions qualify as violations of state or federal
employment laws is to discuss these matters with professionals.


WORKERS’ COMPENSATION CASES IN CALIFORNIA

California law requires nearly all employers operating in the state to purchase
workers’ compensation insurance. Employees can seek financial compensation
through workers’ compensation insurance for economic losses sustained due to
work-related injuries or illnesses.
Examples of such losses include medical bills and lost wages.
However, employees don’t always immediately receive the workers’ compensation
benefits they’re eligible for when they file claims. In an attempt to minimize
their financial losses, insurance companies sometimes deny claims by arguing
that claimants were injured or developed medical conditions when they were
off-the-clock. Even if an insurer doesn’t deny a claim entirely, their goal may
be to settle for less than a claim is worth.
It’s wise to hire a lawyer when seeking workers’ compensation benefits. A
California workers’ compensation attorney can assist you by:
 * Investigating your accident to gather evidence showing it was work-related.
 * Filing your claim so that you may focus on your recovery
 * Handling all correspondence with insurance adjusters, doctors, and others who
   may be involved in your claim.
 * Adding up your compensable losses to determine approximately how much money
   your claim may be worth.
 * If necessary, reject an insurance company’s unreasonably low settlement
   offers and enter into negotiations.


PERSONAL INJURY CASES IN CALIFORNIA

At JMl Law, our California personal injury attorneys also offer representation
to those who’ve been injured as a result of others’ actions or negligence. Types
of cases we handle include (but aren’t limited to) the following:

 * Assaults
 * Brain injuries
 * Motor vehicle accidents
 * Child abuse and sexual assault
 * Pedestrian accidents
 * Bicycle accidents
 * Sports injuries
 * Premises liability accidents
 * Product liability accidents
 * Slip and falls
 * Dog attacks
 * Burn injuries
 * Wrongful death

A California personal injury attorney can improve your chances of winning a case
by:


INVESTIGATING

Pursuing compensation when you’ve been injured due to someone else’s negligence
involves filing a claim to collect from their insurance. It may be necessary to
file a lawsuit and seek damages in court if the negligent party is uninsured or
their insurer won’t offer a fair settlement.

Regardless, before taking legal action, you must accurately identify the liable
party and gather evidence showing you were harmed due to their negligence. This
may require conducting a thorough investigation into your accident. A California
personal injury lawyer has the expertise and resources to conduct such an
investigation.


ACCOUNTING FOR COMPENSABLE LOSSES

When you file a worker compensation claim, you can only seek compensation for
economic losses, such as medical bills. That’s not necessarily the case when you
file a personal injury claim or lawsuit. Along with pursuing compensation for
medical bills, lost wages, and other such economic losses, you may also seek
compensation for non-economic losses, such as pain and suffering.

A lawyer can’t promise you will receive a specific amount of money when your
case is resolved. However, they can account for all your compensable losses to
prevent the insurance company from convincing you to settle for less than your
claim is worth.

Depending on your specific goals and situation, filing a claim or lawsuit
against an employer could result in reinstatement to a job that you have lost,
receiving compensation for back pay or other such losses, and more.

Do not hesitate to pursue justice if you have strong and legitimate reason to
believe that an employer has broken the law in some capacity. When employers who
break the law are held accountable, they tend to be less likely to violate
employment law in the future. By taking action against an employer for their
wrongdoing you are protecting both current and future employees at the company
from being victimized in the same way that you may have been.

Once again, it is merely vital that you remember how challenging it can be to
build a strong case against an employer if you attempt to do so on your own.
