Protecting and Representing Employees in Wrongful Termination, Discrimination, Harassment and Retaliation Claims at Workplace in San Jose & Bay Area
The legal issues that arise in different companies and organizations in San Jose, Santa Clara County and Silicon Valley in general are as diverse as the population and the workforce of the Bay Area. Some of these issues are quite complex, while others are common but nevertheless important to understand.
Our mission is to provide quality, attentive representation to workers in the San Jose and Silicon Valley area, including software and hardware engineers, consultants, sales representatives in the software, drug, and medical devices industries, nurses who work in Santa Clara and San Mateo County hospitals, employees of school districts and other members of the community. Whether we believe your have a strong wrongful termination or discrimination / retaliation or are simply in need of practical advice on how to handle a certain situation or dispute at workplace, we will candidly advise you on the most effective approach to your problem given the unique facts and circumstances of your situation at work.
We represent local employees and businesses in a wide range of disputes at workplace and claims, including age discrimination, disability discrimination, racial and sexual harassment, hostile work environment, retaliation, defamation, and wrongful termination claims. We further advise employees and employers on various wage and compensation issues, such as payment of commissions, overtime, medical leave and other kinds of sick time and PTO, and severance policies and negotiations. Recognizing the unique circumstances of many silicon valley employees in the technology, educational, and healthcare field, we approach each legal situation, and potential or existing dispute on an individual basis, taking into account not only their legal rights in theory, but also our clients' individual challenges and goals that apply to their specific business.
California labor and employment laws change and evolve as rapidly as the various industries themselves. Sometimes the changes are driven by the current politics, while other adjustments are made due to the legislature and the courts' efforts to make employment law and anti-discrimination laws to be more fair and balanced. We do our best to keep up with the new legislation and with the most recent case law. If you have any specific questions or comments about this site or California/Federal employment laws and regulations, or would like to discuss your case, feel free to contact our office or fill out the form below or send an e-mail to attorney Arkady Itkin directly at arkady@arkadylaw.com
