Southern California Employment Lawyer Damien Miranda is dedicated to helping you get justice while punishing those at fault for this type of treatment. Wrongful Termination Although California is referred to as “at-will” regarding employment, there are laws to protect fired employees against certain kinds of discrimination, wrongful termination, and employer retaliation. Discrimination The FEHA prohibits workplace discrimination and harassment on the basis of age (40 and above), race, color, national origin, ancestry, sexual orientation, physical and mental disability, pregnancy, and religion. Family & Medical Leave In certain situations, the law allows for qualified employees to take a prescribed amount of time off for family and medical reasons. We can protect your rights if you have been denied the appropriate leave.
