At Wilmer Harris Law, we proudly offer a comprehensive range of employment law services. Our broad capabilities allow us to approach each case with a deep understanding of the entire legal landscape – ensuring calculated and effective representation for all of our clients.
California has very specific requirements for the payment of wages, working conditions, overtime, meal periods, and more. We represent workers who are classified as both exempt and non-exempt – helping them navigate the complex subject of wage and hour issues.
Our wrongful termination lawyers enforce your rights as a worker in California. Whether you were fired based on your sex, race, or religion, we will pursue legal action against your employer to ensure you receive the compensation you deserve.
When an employee is terminated or threatened with termination after reporting health and safety violations and/or other illegal activities to the authorities, the protection of their rights is critical. Our qui tam lawyers come alongside whistleblowers in California to help them seek compensation for lost wages, punitive damages, and psychological or emotional distress.
If your employer allows sexual harassment to occur in the workplace, our firm will hold these actions accountable on your behalf. This behavior simply doesn’t belong at your place of employment, and it should not be tolerated. Our sexual harassment lawyers will help you recover lost wages, emotional suffering, and other benefits.

Documentation such as emails, performance evaluations, sudden negative changes in your job status, and witness statements can all help provide your case with credibility.
If your employer retaliates against you for your report, you may have grounds for a lawsuit under whistleblower protection laws.
It is important to keep a detailed log of incidents, with dates and times included. A lawyer can analyze the details of your situation and help determine which evidence is most effective.
Compensation depends on factors such as the length of unemployment, the court’s final ruling, and the severity of the employer’s actions. In some instances, you may also be entitled to emotional distress damages and the reimbursement of legal fees.
