Eradicating claims by opportunistic employees so that California businesses can get back to work
The 5-Step Guide to Terminating an Employee:
The unsettling truth:
52% of all California employers will face employment-related claims.
Most of them are completely illegitimate.
I understand how unfair and infuriating this can be for someone who has worked hard to build a successful business, only to have opportunistic former employees attempt to take them down.
That’s why my practice is focused exclusively on helping California employers get these cases dismissed – so they can move forward and get back to work.
In California, the stakes are high for these types of claims.
This is because under California employment-related laws, you have the risk of not only having to pay your own attorney fees, but also the attorney fees of the other side.
But that doesn’t mean you should roll over and surrender.
For over 30 years I’ve represented employers in just about every type of workplace issue.
From lawsuits brought by disgruntled employees to investigating workplace claims to termination decisions – I’ve seen it all.

“I was standing over a cliff watching 30 years of work ready to go crashing down. When settlement day came, Lisa was calm, cool and collected...She found an obscure formula that calculated overtime for piecework employees that saved me a lot of money. Lisa knew how she wanted this scenario to play out and willed it to happen. In 45 minutes it was over with everyone smiling. We reached a reasonable settlement and had a great weight lifted off my shoulders.”
~ Billy S. owner of small business.
