We Advise Clients on Filing Complaints | We File Claims on Behalf of Clients
At The Law Offices of Laura J. Farris, we help mistreated workers determine the best way to proceed in their unique cases against employers' illegal actions. We advise workers and help them file claims of discrimination, harassment, retaliation and other employment law violations in the workplace. Many people think that they must first file a claim with a state or federal employment agency before speaking with a lawyer. This is not true.
It is important to consult with an experienced California workers' rights attorney before seeking assistance from a labor board or other government entity. A knowledgeable and resourceful attorney can help you understand your rights, file a complaint properly and move your case forward efficiently. Government employment agencies are overburdened and backlogged with filings. We work with the agencies on a daily basis, and our professional service puts your needs and diligent case preparation first.
Attorney Laura Farris has been helping clients take appropriate legal actions in employment law cases since 1994. Our law firm can assist you in filing with the state or federal government, and we can take appropriate action to pursue the legal steps for your best possible result against small, medium or large employers. We have successfully obtained compensation on behalf of clients from some of the largest companies in the state, the nation and the world.
Carlsbad Fair Employment Attorneys
Filing complaints with the government without an attorney can be done by going straight to the government agency that would process your case, but several agencies could be involved at the state and federal levels, depending on your case.
You should not have to wait for backlogged government agencies to take several months to get to your case. Employment law violations deserve quick response. Filing a complaint without informed legal representation can delay the process unnecessarily.
We are familiar with the several agencies, law and regulations that could affect your case, and we can help you become educated in these complex areas of law, including:
- California Department of Fair Employment and Housing (DFEH)
- California Department of Labor
- California Department of Industrial Relations
- National Labor Relations Board (NLRB)
- United States Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC)
- Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA)
- Americans with Disability Act (ADA)
- Several others
