Employment Law

Employment Law

We represent employees in a wide variety of work-related issues and strive to obtain results that remedy harms inflicted by an employer. It is not only unethical to discriminate against or harass workers, but also illegal. Depending on your circumstances, you may be entitled to significant compensation for damages.

Partnering with an experienced law firm is critical in these cases. Our San Francisco employment law lawyers at Leigh Law Group are experienced in representing both private sector and public employees in a wide range of state and federal matters. Many of our clients are public school employees, both certified and noncertified.
