Employment Law

• Wrongful Termination
  Liebert Cassidy Whitmore has a long track record of success in employment law cases and we have successfully defended our clients through motion practice, in jury trials and in appeals involving allegations of harassment, wrongful termination, discrimination, whistleblower retaliation, and wage and hour claims. Members of the Litigation Practice Group are trial lawyers who have obtained defense verdicts in a number of jury trials. We also regularly win cases at the initial pleading stage and through summary judgment motions. We are proud to have earned the trust and respect of our clients – counties, administrators, and elected officials – throughout California because of our effective advocacy.
• Employment Discrimination
  We specialize in defending our clients in federal and state court litigation and have earned a reputation as a results-oriented, successful and efficient litigation firm. We are experts in all phases of litigation in both federal and state courts: pleading, discovery, motion practice, alternative dispute resolution, settlement, trial, and appeals. Our particular expertise is in actions brought by employees, former employees, applicants or other individuals alleging employment-related claims such as violations of: California Fair Employment and Housing Act; Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964; Age Discrimination in Employment Act; Americans with Disabilities Act; Federal Civil Rights (§ 1981 and § 1983 claims); Fair Labor Standards Act; Meyers-Milias-Brown Act; Family and Medical Leave Act; wrongful termination; retaliation, and tort claims. We also represent our clients in administrative proceedings involving the Department of Fair Employment and Housing, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the U.S. Department of Labor, the California Labor Commissioner, and the California Employment Development Department. We also regularly defend and handle declaratory relief and injunctive relief actions. Our litigation practice also includes all aspects of appellate work. Since 2000, our attorneys have been involved in over 80 appellate decisions. In addition to many unpublished appellate victories, our attorneys are responsible for several key decisions in California public sector labor law.
• Sexual Harassment
  In 2018, the California legislature passed SB 1343 and SB 778 expanding the requirement for who has to be trained on sexual harassment issues, largely in response to the #MeToo movement. The law requires employers with five or more employees to provide harassment prevention training to all employees.  Supervisors must receive 2 hours of training every two years or within 6 months of their assumption of a supervisory position.  Non-supervisory staff must participate in the 1-hour course every two years.
