What Is Employment Law?

Employment law is a collection of federal and state laws, regulations, and legal standards that determine an employee’s workplace rights and an employer’s responsibilities. From preventing harassment to setting safety standards, federal and California employment laws guarantee employees many specific rights and privileges. These same rules also guide employers by covering essential topics, such as how to handle hiring and firing, which benefits to provide, and how to resolve work-related disputes. Employment guidelines help guarantee that employers treat their employees fairly, from their first interview to their last day on the job.

Employment law also dictates contract negotiations and collective bargaining. For example, employment laws cover employment terms and conditions that employers often include in employment contracts, such as compensation, benefits, job duties, and dispute resolution mechanisms. Employment lawyers help employees understand these terms and conditions, identify issues or discrepancies, and negotiate better provisions and protections.

How Do I Find a Good Alameda Employment Lawyer?

Locating the right employment lawyer can feel like finding a needle in a haystack. But following a few simple steps can make the process easier.:

  • Ask around. Friends, family, or co-workers may have invaluable recommendations, making word-of-mouth a great way to find a competent Alameda employment lawyer.
  • Research online. Internet directories and review platforms like Avvo can help you find attorneys listed by specialty and location.
  • Check reviews. Online review platforms can also help you find an Alameda employment law attorney with a good reputation and successful track record.
  • Visit the California Bar Association website. The California State Bar Association maintains a database of all practicing California attorneys. You can also check whether an attorney is in good standing or whether they have had disciplinary actions filed against them.
  • Interview potential attorneys. Most advocates offer a free initial consultation where you can ask questions and see if the attorney is a good fit for your case.

Finding the right attorney might take some time. But in the end, following these steps will help you choose someone who will have your back, fight for your rights, and help you understand California’s complex employment laws and procedures.

What Types of Workplace Matters Does an Alameda Employment Attorney Handle?

Employment lawyers handle a wide range of workplace issues. Some of the most common issues employment lawyers at Bibiyan Law Group deal with include the following:

  • Wage and hour disputes. California’s wage and hour laws protect and regulate employees’ wages, the hours they’re allowed to work, overtime pay, and meal and rest breaks.
  • Discrimination. Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA), and California’s Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA) prohibit employers from treating employees discriminatorily due to race, gender, sexual orientation, age, disability, religion, national origin, or any other protected characteristics.
  • Harassment and hostile environment. Title VII of the Civil Rights Act and other California laws also protect employees from unwelcome behavior and sexual harassment that creates a hostile work environment.
  • Family and medical leave violations. The California Family Rights Act (CFRA) and Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) allow eligible employees to take unpaid leave for family or medical reasons, such as childbirth, adoption, or serious health conditions.
  • Whistleblower protections. California and federal laws shield employees from retaliation when reporting illegal activities, safety violations, or other employer wrongdoing.
  • Wrongful termination. Wrongful termination laws prohibit employers from firing employees illegally based on discrimination, retaliation, or breach of their employment contract.
  • Workers’ compensation. California’s workers’ compensation laws ensure that employees receive medical treatment and compensation for work-related injuries or illnesses, including lost wages.
  • Occupational safety and health. California’s Division of Occupational Safety and Health (DOSH) promotes safe working conditions and requires employers to provide a hazard-free environment, training, and safety procedures.

These are just a few employment law areas Bibiyan Law Group manages. Because specific employment issues involve explicit legal regulations and requirements, meeting with one of our skilled employment lawyers can offer you more detailed guidance based on your unique situation.

TESTIMONIALS

Customer Reviews

This law firm was extremely helpful and successful in my case. In a matter of 7 months they were able to settle my case! Joshua, Ariella, Vedang, and Iona were my attorneys and Aaron were extremely helpful in my case, always responsive and helped with any questions I had about my case. I was turned down by a few other law firms but this law firm took me seriously and won! I’m very satisfied with all of their services.

Fiorela A

They will always answer your calls and call you with updates to keep you informed. I had the pleasure of working with many of them and they are all great individuals. Bibiyan Law Group won two of the two cases I had with them and I’m pretty happy with them. I would recommend you give them a call.

Jose B

Super nice people. I opened a case with them and it took a while like most cases do but they made it very easy for me. I basically just told them what happened and they handled everything until the case closed while updating me in between and answering questions if I had any. Thank you!

Kaley C

Bibiyan Law Group was by far a great choice to make for my wrongful termination lawsuit. They kept me in the loop with all the details and supported me along the way until I received my settlement. Thank you for everything. Would recommend!

These are just a few of many examples of the work we do every day on behalf of hard working employees who are mistreated by their employers. Indeed, wherever there is a California employee who is being taken advantage of by their employer, we are here to lend a helping hand to ensure those practices are rectified. This includes working to make sure that you are made whole to the extent possible, as well as making efforts to ensure the employer changes its practices so that others are not hurt by the same policies or procedures.

Employment laws can be complex and employers may seem intimidating. No matter how blatant employment violations seem, employers and their attorneys manufacture excuses to show why you were paid all of your wages or why your termination was lawful. However, excuses can be torn down and employment violations shown for what they are. That is why Tomorrow Law™ exists: so employees do not have to be alone in their uphill battle against their employers who all too often trample their rights.

Don’t let your employer or former employer bully you. You have rights and we are here to help you know them and vindicate them.

If you were mistreated at work, believe you are not being compensated properly, or believe you were wrongfully terminated, the team at Tomorrow Law™ will take all possible measures to provide you with the best outcome. If you think you may have a possible claim, or would like information regarding your rights, contact Los Angeles Employment Law Firm Bibiyan Law Group. We will work with you to determine whether you may have a case against your employer, what the potential case may be, and can recommend a next step toward vindicating your employment rights.
