Employment law
Clear guidance for difficult moments at work.
Rastegar Law Group represents California employees across a focused range of workplace disputes.
Wrongful Termination
A termination may be unlawful when it is tied to discrimination, retaliation, protected leave, whistleblowing, or another protected activity. The timing, stated reason, and written record often matter.
02Workplace Discrimination
California and federal laws prohibit many employment decisions based on protected characteristics. Evidence may include patterns, comments, comparators, shifting explanations, and timing.
03Sexual Harassment
Workplace sexual harassment may involve unwanted conduct, a hostile work environment, or job benefits conditioned on sexual conduct. Retaliation after a good-faith report may also be unlawful.
04Workplace Retaliation
Retaliation may occur when an employer takes a materially negative action because an employee engaged in legally protected activity.
05Wage & Hour
California wage claims may involve unpaid overtime, off-the-clock work, missed meal or rest periods, deductions, classification issues, or inaccurate wage statements.
06Pregnancy Discrimination
Pregnancy discrimination can involve hiring, firing, scheduling, leave, accommodation, or other decisions based on pregnancy, childbirth, or related medical conditions.
07Equal Pay
California law can prohibit paying employees less for substantially similar work based on protected characteristics, subject to lawful explanations and specific evidence.
08PAGA & Class Actions
Some recurring workplace violations may support a class, collective, or representative action. Eligibility, notice requirements, agreements, and deadlines require fact-specific review.
