Los Angeles Employment Cases We Handle
At Haeggquist & Eck, we have extensive experience in handling various employment law cases. Our team of knowledgeable LA employment attorneys is well-versed in all California labor and employment laws and thoroughly understands the challenges employees face in the workplace.
Here are some key areas in which we can provide legal representation for Los Angeles employees.
Unpaid Wages and Overtime Claims
As an employee in Los Angeles, knowing your rights regarding unpaid wages and overtime claims is important. California has some of the strongest labor laws in the country, specifically designed to protect workers like you. If you suspect that your employer has not been paying you properly for the hours you’ve worked, it may be time to consult our Los Angeles employment law attorneys. One common issue that many employees face is not being paid for all of the hours they’ve worked. Under California law, employers must pay their employees for all hours worked, including overtime hours. This means that if you’re working more than 40 hours in a week, or more than 8 hours in a day, you are entitled to overtime pay. If your employer is not paying you properly for these overtime hours, it’s time to take action. Another issue that employees often encounter is not receiving their final paycheck on time. According to California labor law, employers must provide employees with their final paycheck on their last day of employment. If your employer refuses to pay you your final wages or is delaying payment, they may violate the law. Consulting our employment lawyers can explain your rights and take the necessary steps to recover the wages you’re owed. Wage and overtime class actions are another avenue for employees to seek justice for unpaid wages. In a class action lawsuit, a group of employees can band together to hold their employer accountable for wage violations. This can be a powerful tool, allowing employees to join forces and fight for their rights as a collective. If you believe that your employer has violated wage and overtime laws, contact our employment lawyers at Haeggquist & Eck today to explore the possibility of a class action lawsuit.Meals and Rest Breaks
California law mandates that employees receive meal and rest breaks during their workday. If your employer has denied you these breaks or has not provided them under the law, our attorneys can advocate for your rights.Misclassification of Employees
If your employer has misclassified you as an independent contractor instead of an employee, you may be entitled to certain benefits and protections. Our LA employment attorneys can assess your employment status and take legal action if necessary to ensure you receive the rights and benefits you deserve.Pregnancy Discrimination
Pregnancy discrimination can take various forms, including being denied promotions, being subjected to unfair treatment, or even being wrongfully terminated. Our attorneys will stand up for your rights and hold your employer accountable for any pregnancy-related discrimination.Race Discrimination

California law prohibits age discrimination in the workplace. If you have been treated unfairly or denied opportunities based on your age, our attorneys will advocate for your rights and seek justice on your behalf.Sexual Harassment
Sexual harassment in the workplace is a serious issue that affects many employees in California. Every employee should understand the laws and protections in place to combat this type of harassment and ensure a safe and respectful working environment. If you believe you experienced sexual harassment at work, never wait to consult our Los Angeles employment law attorneys at Haeggquist & Eck to understand your rights and options. In California, both state and federal laws protect employees from sexual harassment in the workplace. The California Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA) prohibits any form of sexual harassment, including unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, and other verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature. Under federal law, Title VII of the Civil Rights Act also prohibits sexual harassment in the workplace. If you have experienced sexual harassment, we can assist you in filing a claim. We can gather evidence, document incidents of harassment, and file a complaint with the appropriate agencies, such as the California Department of Fair Employment and Housing (DFEH) or the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC). Retaining an attorney gives you the best chance of obtaining a favorable outcome in your case. We will explain the legal process, negotiate with your employer or their legal representatives, and protect you. If you experienced sexual harassment in the workplace, take action and seek the assistance of our employment law attorneys. Do not hesitate to learn about your legal rights and options in a sexual harassment case.Retaliation
