I was a client of Jason Gunter and his firm in an employment law case involving a combination of contracts, unpaid wages, and a non-compete.  I found Mr. Gunter to have excellent legal knowledge and experience in these areas and all employment law.  His firm was very prompt in handling my case despite the fact that they are extremely busy. Mr. Gunter treated me as a person and really listened to me. He formulated a well-thought-out legal strategy that resulted in an excellent resolution in my favor.  Both Mr. Gunter and his staff were very professional and personable. I would definitely highly recommend his firm!

Jason represented me against my former employer who decided to bully me and potentially financially ruin me. He was very knowledgeable of both my employer, their past behaviors and how to battle them in federal court without costing me a lot of money. He was very conscious of my limited resources, and most importantly, quickly resolved my case. He was available to me 24/7: he even did our initial consultation on a Sunday night because I needed an attorney quickly. I would recommend Jason wholeheartedly as a brilliant, ethical and effective attorney!

I am extremely grateful to attorney Azad Marvazy for accepting and winning my California EDD Unemployment appeal case. Azad listened intently to my unusual appeal case and researched the law aggressively, finding a way to fight it successfully. I had never been involved with EDD Unemployment before and was intimidated by the appeal process. Azad put my mind at ease by walking me through the process and confirming I had a case worth fighting. He answered all my questions in a timely manner, returning calls and emails within a day. Azad was thorough, professional and detail oriented. I never doubted his ability to win our case because he dotted every “i” and crossed every “t”. I cannot express my gratitude enough. If you are looking for an advocate to fight a California EDD Unemployment appeal case, I strongly recommend Azad Marvazy with the Light Law Group.

Attorney Azad Marvazy possesses a extraordinarily high level of stewardship with regards to his knowledge in the practice area of Labor and Employment Law. He was able to provide consultation to me for my case which ultimately allowed me to seek a favorable adjudication in my case. Attorney Marvazy is able to carefully deliberate the smallest of the clients details which allows him to have a high level of awareness within his own self consciousness. Inevitably this awareness allows him to exercise his knowledge in three dimensions to the client which is a very rare trait to find in his profession. I would highly recommend the use of his services to anyone in need of an Attorney with excellent professional skills.

Michelle not only helped me resolve an issue with my previous employer but also provided emotional support throughout the process as this was the first time in my life I was in need of legal representation. I highly recommend her to anyone in need of legal help especially with regard to discrimination cases. She also got back to me fairly quickly upon my initial correspondence with her (unlike some other lawyers I reached out to) and was willing to fully hear me out and assist me to the best of her ability. Additionally she kept me in the loop in a timely manner throughout the process. She is the best and well worth the price you pay for her expertise!

I talked with several employment attorneys before hiring Michelle to assist with my severance dispute. I ended up going with her because of a very good referral from a close friend who used her for a non-compete matter he had as an EVP. Michelle was well-versed in all aspects of executive severance and got me everything I wanted. It took awhile, but that was not her fault--there were several delays on my employer's part. Despite this, Michelle kept them on track and kept me updated. Her fees were reasonable, which I really appreciated. Could not be happier.

After working for my employer almost 30 years, I found myself in a very difficult situation where I was being pushed out of my position as a senior executive due solely to my age. Michelle helped me negotiate a very fair buy-out that enabled me to move forward with my career and did so in a very professional manner. Even the other attorney thanked her for her professionalism. I have no doubt that without Michelle I would still be working there, suffering and demoted, or that I would have been fired with cause and left with nothing. I joked with Michelle that she was sometimes more of a therapist than attorney but more expensive--that is what I needed at the time, and I really did appreciate what she called "hand-holding."

Being new to California, Rudy was referred to me by a highly-respected Employment & Labor attorney from outside the Sacramento region. She said, "Rudy's your guy. "You have a believable story. Rudy will be sure you get a fair shot. Call him." I did. Rudy returned my initial call promptly. He took time to listen to my story, asking thoughtful and provoking questions along the way. Within 20 minutes I had a clear understanding of the unique California employment laws I was up against. Rudy clearly laid out next steps he felt were available to me. Rudy presented two straight-up fee options, a super easy to complete online engagement agreement and then encouraged me to think about things before signing! He said "If I thought he could be helpful and I wanted to proceed, to call him back to meet the aggressive document timelines established by my employer." I did. Within 48-hours of engaging Rudy's services, he took full control of my case, and established an elevated level for consideration to my employer, offering a real sense of hope for me and my family. Rudy then said to stay calm, be patient and wait. I did. Over a matter on weeks, Rudy communicated directly with my employers leadership, human resources and attorneys, keeping me informed every step of the way. Rudy reported, "the company is moving slowly, but definitely moving in the right direction for you. Keep the faith." I did. The bottom line; Working with Rudy was an inspiring experience for me. Rudy knows his stuff, kept me informed, was straightforward, honest and true to his word. Rudy negotiated a fair agreement with my past employer at levels greater than I could have achieved on my own. Rudy's sense of justice, (vs. the dollar) is real and so refreshing. Did Rudolf Delson's expertice, leadership, guidance, and dedication to my personal employment case make a difference for me and my family? YES, RUDY DID!

Sympathetic, friendly, analytical, and most importantly, effective. Highly effective. These are simply a few words I would use to describe Mr. Delson as my lawyer. I had spent more years than I care to remember, giving everything I had to an employer I imagined staying with for the rest of my career. Then, in an instant, it was all gone. I was destroyed. I needed to hold my employer accountable but had no legal resources to turn to. Then I found Mr. Delson via Avvo. Over the next few months, Mr. Delson reviewed my case in minute detail, collaborated with additional specialist counsel (the case was complex and extended way beyond pure-play employment issues), and devised the winning strategy. Going up against a large company with expensive lawyers is not for the faint-hearted. If you are in a situation like this and are unsure as to whether you should proceed with litigation - talk to Mr. Delson. Now I am on the other side of this case, I couldn't be happier with the result. Did I mention he is also a joy to work with? Absolutely delighted.

Never did I expect I'd need a lawyer for my small business. Those types of problems happened to "other people". However, that day came and I really felt like I had no recourse. As a last resort, I talked to Rudy about my options and he knew I had a case. I was nervous, as this whole process was new to me, but he was so knowledgeable about the whole situation, guided me through my options and was able to parse through a complicated situation and break it down succinctly. I felt heard and taken care of, and thus, trusted Rudy's decisions from day one on the best approach—and we ended the process better than I ever expected. Thank you!!

Craig Byrnes is incredible. I found Craig after I sought legal representation after my employer presented me with a difficult situation. He was so responsive, knowledgeable, and clear in his approach to protect my interests. Craig is adept at filtering out ethical or emotional issues from legal issues, and does not waste time on futile matters. He is extremely efficient and does not sugarcoat anything. He is great at client management too, keeping me focused on the task at hand and talking sense into me when needed. Craig was able to reach an amicable resolution with my employer to end the situation gracefully and rationally. I don't know if anyone has referred to their attorney as a knight in shining armor, but he is definitely that. I highly recommend him to anyone - you want him on your side.

I cannot explain the great help Craig was to me in my case. He picked up the dirty work another attorney left behind, In no time he had answers for me, that he explained in great detail until I was on board with understanding the big picture. He is extraordinary and professional. Craig kept me in the loop every step of the way, and unlike other attorneys, he never mentioned time spent on the phone nor email exchanges, he doesn't make it about money. He truly cares about his clients and makes time for them. I am beyond happy with the settlement he obtained, and would highly recommend Craig to anyone looking for an honest, professional, experienced and empathetic attorney. If ever there is need of representation again, I would not think twice to call on Craig, the relationship we built and advised he gave me has helped me lifelong.

Mr. Byrnes served me twice. I first met him when searching for an employment lawyer because I wanted a contract if I was to leave my job to go help prospective employer with their business. I was leaving a highly paid job and wanted both sides to be clear as to what we agreed to. Once the contract was signed and I resigned my other job, my employer refused to pay me what was agreed to in the contract. Mr. Byrnes provided excellent advice throughout the whole mess, was strategic in his approach, and was far more knowledgeable that some of the lawyers the employer hired (employer went through about 3 lawyers before finally settling). Mr. Byrnes got me a big settlement. I cannot say enough positive things about Mr. Byrnes. His professionalism is outstanding. He prepared for the case so thoroughly that no matter what opposing lawyers might throw at us, he always responded with facts and law, so they stopped arguing with him. I wouldn't want to have to be on the other side in a case he was involved with. He always told me the truth, explained the law and how judges were ruling on various points, and he listened to my concerns with great sensitivity. Anyone who has an employment law issue can do no better than turning to Craig Byrnes. Ultimately, he stood strong for me and obtained a big settlement for me.

So far so good! I owe a big thank you to Brian here. My manager to make a long story short terminated my brother and suspended me for calling out some serious safety concerns in our work environment and said the reasons for the discipline were unrelated. And its been quite a challenge to find anyone that will at least hear my brother and I out, until I came across Brian. Not only was he willing to hear me out he also provided guidance on how to tread in these tricky waters. It's attorneys like this that give decent hard working people like us the support we need and the motivation necessary to fight back when companies think they can smile in our faces one day then send us packing the next. Whatever our outcome we give Brian and his law firm a huge thanks for looking out for the right people.

He was friendly, polite, and heard my case start to finish. He told me indeed I was being underpaid and that I'm owed all lost wages+tips going back up to 6 years (NY state law). At the end I was able to recover my wages, tips, plus another $10,000 in fines. I was surprised how much I was able to receive even after I left my job...one thing that stood out was he always answered my emails and calls (which was a HUGE deal as I've dealt with lawyers in the past who never answer their phones!)

Based upon that first conversation, it was clear that she had good intentions (it wasn't all about how much she would make from the settlement) - her desire was to help me achieve an appropriate outcome. She came across as experienced, measured and fair. I ultimately had her step in to help with the negotiation and was happy with the overall result. Jean was recommended to me by another employment lawyer that is highly regarded - very glad I had the opportunity to work with her.

When a person is wrongly terminated it takes away more than your job. You loose the essence of who you are, your confidence, your trust in people, how you interact with the outside world. You feel ashamed. But, Jean was able to change all that for me and my termination turned out to be a blessing. Jean gave me hope from the very first conversation. She and Katherine won my case and the money was great but what they really did was continually make me know that the termination wasn’t my fault. They believed in me. I lived across the country from Jean but it felt as though she was right next door. She was in contact when necessary and was always available when I needed to ask something. She allowed me to make decisions on my case and always gave me options and suggestions. Her guidance and in sight was right on target, I trusted her and she was very successful for me. I am forever grateful.

I was amazed how prepared and thorough Subha was during my consultation. Other attorneys I consulted with would read my file 5 minutes before and would not have a clue . She knew the in and outs of my case after reviewing my file and you can tell she took the time . This is an excellent top notch attorney who actually cares and would highly recommend her and the firm . You will not go wrong and will have someone extremely knowledgeable about the EEO process . Prestigious attorney and firm.

I hired Lauren as my attorney because I knew she was the best! A truly positive experience Lauren offers the finest in professional legal services in the greater Los Angeles area, there is certainly more to the Law Offices of Lauren Abrams than any review can describe. In one word, opulence comes to mind when describing the level of service offered by Lauren and her team. From intake, communication, negotiation and settlement, there was not one moment I felt Lauren and her team didn't have my best interest at heart. I can imagine no attorney enters law school expecting to provide a level of due care provided by Lauren and her team. From my first phone calls with various staff, and my in-person consultation with Lauren, I never felt like a client. I always felt like a member of the team. Yes, this is the type of team that will have you considering changing careers. While we may not all be cut out to be attorneys, it is comforting to know you have the best ones backing you every step of the way.

I sought guidance on how to proceed on my own behalf. Ms. Reynolds understood how much time would be needed to advise me and sent a list of documents I needed to provide in advance of our 1.5 hour consultation. She was on-time, thoroughly prepared and knowledgeable on every aspect of the situation. She asked clear, precise questions to be sure I communicated everything necessary for her to formulate her advice, which was specific and explained in detail. I am now awaiting responses to the communications I sent out to see how the situation resolves. I am hopeful of the outcome.

Eric is an excellent attorney, especially good at negotiations and getting matters settled to the satisfaction of the client. What I especially liked about Eric is that he listens and has a conversation with you. He respects your needs and wishes and gets it done. He is an excellent writer, he drafts agreements well, good reviewer and he's thoughtful. What this all means is that he is someone you can trust and get you through your case successfully. Eric is a terrific attorney and I would wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone seeking an attorney or legal counsel. I had a very positive experience with Eric who did not give up and got me through a very challenging matter with great success as far as I am concerned. I am extremely grateful I found him. He just gets what you want. He extracts you cleaning from matters and ensures that the other side understands exactly what they have done and what they are facing.

I highly recommend attorney, Eric Gruber of the Gruber Law Group. I was rear-ended while driving on the 101 freeway in Marin County, California. I sustained neck and back injuries and was not being properly compensated for my medical bills by the at-fault party's insurance company. I knew I was being treated very poorly by the insurance company, but I did not know who to turn to. Two other attorneys turned me away because my case was not big enough. Eric was then recommended to me by a lawyer friend. I hired Eric and he assisted me quickly and got me the additional monetary compensation that was appropriate. My experience with Eric was extremely positive because he was personable, easy to talk to and he always returned my calls in a timely fashion. He explained a range of options and strategies for me to consider, gave me his opinion and left the decision to me. I highly recommend Eric because he is intelligent, ethical, conscientious and caring. I would not hesitate to hire Eric Gruber and the Gruber Law Group for other legal needs in the future.

In our situation Katie assisted with a very complex employment discrimination matter with a lot of moving parts. Katie is an outstanding litigator/negotiator whose compassion for her work and her clients shines through. From the start of her work on our case it was obvious she was very knowledgeable about employment/labor law and as the case progressed it became clear that not only did Katie believe in our case- but that she was personally invested in seeing us have a successful resolution. Her communication with us on every matter big or small was timely and clear. Her patience and willingness to explain the process on any issue was commendable. Her honesty is admirable. She kept us grounded in moments of stress and remained steadfast throughout the process. She often made us feel as if we were her only or most important client. The support staff at her firm was outstanding too. In the end our case resolution was better than we had hoped for when we started. It has made a big difference in our future.

What a Sexual Harassment Lawyer Can Do for You

A sexual harassment lawyer specializes in representing individuals who have experienced unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, or other verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature that affects their employment or creates a hostile work environment. These lawyers help victims understand their rights under federal and state laws, such as Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, and guide them through the process of filing complaints, negotiating settlements, or pursuing litigation. They also assist employers in implementing anti-harassment policies, conducting investigations, and defending against claims.

Whether you're an employee facing harassment or an employer seeking to address or prevent harassment claims, a sexual harassment lawyer can provide the legal expertise needed to navigate these sensitive issues.

When Should I Hire a Sexual Harassment Lawyer?

You should consider hiring a sexual harassment lawyer in the following situations:

  • For Employees:
    • Experiencing workplace harassment: If you are subjected to unwelcome sexual advances, comments, or behavior that creates a hostile or offensive work environment, a lawyer can help you understand your rights and the steps to take.
    • Retaliation for reporting harassment: If you've reported harassment to your employer and are facing retaliation such as demotion, termination, or other adverse actions, a lawyer can help protect your rights.
    • Failure of employer to address complaints: If your employer does not take appropriate action after you've reported harassment, a lawyer can advise on how to escalate the matter legally.
    • Constructive dismissal: If the harassment is so severe that you feel forced to resign, a lawyer can help you pursue a claim for constructive dismissal.
    • Negotiating settlements: If you're considering a settlement with your employer, a lawyer can negotiate on your behalf to ensure you receive fair compensation.
  • For Employers:
    • Receiving a harassment complaint: If an employee has filed a harassment complaint, a lawyer can guide you through the legal obligations for investigating and addressing the complaint.
    • Implementing anti-harassment policies: A lawyer can help you develop and implement policies and training programs to prevent harassment and protect your organization legally.
    • Defending against claims: If your organization is facing a harassment lawsuit, a lawyer can represent you in court or during settlement negotiations.

Hiring a lawyer early can help ensure that your rights are protected and that you take the appropriate legal steps.

What Does a Sexual Harassment Lawyer Do?

A sexual harassment lawyer provides various legal services depending on whether they represent the employee or the employer. Their responsibilities often include:

  • For Employees:
    • Legal consultation: Provide advice on your rights and the merits of your case, helping you understand the legal definitions of harassment and applicable laws.
    • Filing complaints: Assist in filing a complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) or state agencies, ensuring that all procedural requirements are met.
    • Negotiating settlements: Engage in negotiations with the employer to secure compensation for damages such as lost wages, emotional distress, or punitive damages.
    • Litigation: Represent you in court if a lawsuit is filed, presenting evidence, questioning witnesses, and making legal arguments to support your case.
    • Protection against retaliation: Advise on how to handle retaliation from your employer and take legal action if necessary.
  • For Employers:
    • Policy development: Help create comprehensive anti-harassment policies and training programs to prevent harassment in the workplace.
    • Internal investigations: Guide the investigation process when a complaint is made, ensuring it is thorough, impartial, and compliant with legal standards.
    • Legal defense: Represent the company in responding to EEOC complaints or lawsuits, aiming to resolve the matter efficiently and protect the organization's interests.
    • Compliance advice: Keep the company informed about changes in employment laws related to harassment and recommend best practices to maintain compliance.

How Are Sexual Harassment Lawyers Paid?

Sexual harassment lawyers typically charge for their services in various ways, depending on the nature of the case and representation:

  • For Employees:
    • Contingency fee: Many lawyers represent employees on a contingency fee basis, meaning they only get paid if they win or settle the case. The fee is usually a percentage of the recovered amount, typically ranging from 25% to 40%.
    • Hourly rate: Some lawyers may charge an hourly rate, especially if the case is unlikely to result in monetary compensation but still requires legal assistance.
  • For Employers:
    • Hourly rate: Lawyers representing employers usually charge by the hour, with rates ranging from $200 to $600 or more, depending on their experience and the case complexity.
    • Retainer: Employers may pay a retainer fee for ongoing legal services, especially if they require regular legal counsel on employment matters.

It's important to discuss fees during the initial consultation to understand the cost structure and any additional expenses.

How Much Does a Sexual Harassment Lawyer Cost?

The cost of hiring a sexual harassment lawyer varies based on several factors:

  • For Employees:
    • Contingency fees: If working on a contingency basis, you typically won't pay any upfront fees. If you win or settle, the lawyer's fee will be a percentage of the compensation. For example, if you settle for $50,000 with a 30% contingency fee, the lawyer would receive $15,000.
    • Hourly rates: If charged hourly, fees can range from $200 to $600 per hour. Total costs depend on the number of hours worked.
  • For Employers:
    • Hourly rates: Legal fees can range from $200 to $600 per hour. A straightforward case might cost between $5,000 and $20,000, while more complex litigation could exceed $50,000.
    • Retainer fees: Ongoing legal services may require a retainer ranging from $5,000 to $25,000 or more, depending on the anticipated legal work.

Always request a detailed fee agreement to understand all potential costs.

Top Questions to Ask a Sexual Harassment Lawyer

Before hiring a sexual harassment lawyer, consider asking the following questions:

  1. What experience do you have with sexual harassment cases?
    Ensure the lawyer has a strong background in handling cases similar to yours.
  2. How do you charge for your services?
    Understand the fee structure, including contingency fees, hourly rates, and any additional costs.
  3. What are the strengths and weaknesses of my case?
    Get an honest assessment to set realistic expectations.
  4. What is the likely timeline for my case?
    Ask how long the process might take, from filing a complaint to resolution.
  5. Will my case go to trial?
    Discuss the likelihood of settling versus going to court.
  6. How involved will I need to be?
    Understand what will be required of you throughout the process.
  7. What outcomes can I expect?
    Discuss potential remedies, such as compensation, policy changes, or reinstatement.

How to Check the Credibility of a Sexual Harassment Lawyer

To ensure you're hiring a reputable lawyer:

  • Verify their license: Check with your state bar association to confirm they are licensed and in good standing.
  • Review their experience: Look for lawyers who specialize in employment law, particularly sexual harassment cases.
  • Read client reviews: Check online reviews and testimonials on platforms like Avvo or Martindale-Hubbell.
  • Ask for references: A credible lawyer should provide references from past clients.
  • Professional memberships: Membership in organizations like the National Employment Lawyers Association (NELA) can indicate a focus on employment law.

What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?

To make the most of your initial meeting:

  • Detailed account: Prepare a written timeline of incidents, including dates, locations, and individuals involved.
  • Documentation: Bring any relevant documents, such as emails, text messages, voicemails, photographs, or witness statements.
  • Employment records: Provide your employment contract, employee handbook, performance reviews, and any prior complaints filed.
  • Questions: Write down any questions you have about your case, the legal process, or the lawyer's experience.
  • List of witnesses: Note any colleagues or individuals who may have witnessed the harassment or can support your claims.

Being well-prepared will help the lawyer assess your case effectively and provide accurate legal advice.
