California law strongly protects employees who speak up about illegal conduct, unsafe work conditions, discrimination, harassment, wage violations, or who take legally protected leave. Yet many employers still punish workers for asserting their rights. This unlawful behavior is known as retaliation, and it is strictly prohibited under both state and federal law.
At Taban Law Firm, we stand up for employees who have been mistreated for simply doing what the law allows or requires, them to do. If you experienced retaliation at work, you may be entitled to compensation for lost wages, emotional distress, and other damages.
