Wrongful Termination and Employment Discrimination

The Garber Law Firm has extensive experience defending employers in cases involving claims of employment discrimination and wrongful termination. From the initiation of a charge with a governmental agency such as the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission or the Department of Fair Employment and Housing through the investigative stage and a trial, we vigorously defend our clients. We handle claims arising under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Fair Employment and Housing Act, the Americans with Disabilities Act, the Family Medical and Leave Act, California Labor Code 132a and numerous other statutes and federal statutes governing the workplace.

Businesses, business owners and management may be accused of and or charged with discrimination based on their employee’s Age, Race, Disability, Gender or Sex, Sexual Orientation, National Origin, Religion. Employees also may make claims that they were retaliated against for asserting a right or were subject to adverse employment action because they were Whistleblowers. We defend such employers throughout the entire process from the initial complaint through litigation.

Additionally, we regularly defend employers in cases alleging sexual harassment, wrongful termination, breach of contract, breach of the duty of good faith and fair dealing, violations of public policy, infliction of emotional distress, negligent hiring and numerous other actions involving an employer’s employees and former employees.

We also provide Employers with advice on how to prevent claims from arising and to solve problems before they rise to the level of litigation. We draft Employment policies and procedures for our clients as well as provide training to managers on how to handle many situations likely to occur in the workplace.
