Employment Law

Marquee Law Group, APC, represents employees and employers in a wide variety of labor and employment matters. We offer highly personalized legal representation in labor and employment disputes.

Employment Law

Positive employment relations are essential to the overall health of any business. An employer in California must maneuver through a complex maze of State and Federal laws governing employee relations, especially in the areas of sex and age discrimination, wrongful termination, workplace safety, job security, immigration, business acquisitions, and management/union relations to avoid potential liability to its employees. At Marquee, our goal is to help minimize disruptions and allow your company to thrive.

 

Even very careful and conscientious employers can get caught up in some aspect of employment litigation.  Attorneys at Marquee Law Group, APC, provide employment law advice to guide employers, help them avoid pitfalls, and protect even the best-intentioned employers who are targeted for litigation by government attorneys or private parties.

​

Employer Defense Division at Marquee Law Group, APC, can help your business avoid run-ins with the Employment Development Department by making sure your business complies with all state and federal regulations such as employee meal breaks, overtime compensation, and sick pay. If you are involved in potential litigation, our team of experienced attorneys and counselors will work with you to defend against impending lawsuits, EDD and EEO administrative reviews, and unruly departing employees.

​

At Marquee Law Group, APC, we will work to avoid or minimize your legal issues, by ensuring proper procedures are in place and precautions have been made in advance. Our team of experienced attorneys and counselors will work with you to create or revise a personalized employee handbook for your business. Additionally, we provide seminars that educate employees about your company’s policies to minimize the risk of future lawsuits.

 

Wherever possible, our employment lawyers prefer to work with our clients to take a proactive, preventative approach to design and implementing employment policies that fit our client’s unique workplace requirements and minimize disputes that may later require litigation. We can help your business prepare for increases or reductions in workforce, protect trade secrets and proprietary information, and advise employers about employment issues in the context of a transfer of ownership.
