Why You Want to Work With Us on Your Wrongful Termination Case

We bring a focused, client-first approach to every employment law matter. We are not a high-volume firm. Instead, we intentionally limit our caseload so we can give each client the time, attention, and strategic advocacy they deserve. When you work with us, you work directly with your attorney; you aren’t passed off to assistants or case managers.

Our team is prepared to take on employers of all sizes, and we don’t back down when cases become complex or contested. We build tailored legal strategies based on your specific circumstances, whether your claim involves retaliation, discrimination, or another unlawful reason for termination. If your employer refuses to offer a fair resolution, we are fully prepared to take your case to trial.

We also have a strong track record of results that demonstrates our commitment to fighting for employees across California. Our firm has helped recover millions of dollars for workers, including:

• A $6.9 million award for employees denied proper wages, overtime, and breaks
• A $1.8 million class action settlement for overtime and meal/rest violations
• A $1.4 million class action settlement for wage and hour violations
• A $1 million settlement for off-the-clock work claims
• A $1 million recovery for janitorial workers who were underpaid and denied breaks

While every case is different, these results reflect the level of dedication and advocacy we bring to every client we represent. If you believe you were wrongfully terminated in Altadena, we are ready to stand by your side and fight for the outcome you deserve.

What to Do If You Think You Were Wrongfully Terminated

If you believe you were wrongfully terminated, act quickly to protect your rights. 

• Gather and save all records related to your employment and firing, including emails, text messages, performance reviews, pay stubs, schedules, and any disciplinary notices.
• Write down a timeline of what happened while the details are still fresh, especially if you reported discrimination, harassment, wage violations, or unsafe conditions before you were fired. 
• Do not sign a severance agreement, release, or other paperwork without legal advice, because you could give up important rights. 
• If possible, identify coworkers who witnessed what happened or experienced similar treatment. 
• Continue documenting any contact from your former employer after termination.
• Speak with an employment attorney as soon as possible to evaluate your options and filing deadlines. Our firm can review your case, explain your next steps, and fight for the compensation you deserve. Call us today for a free consultation.

What Our Attorneys Can Do for You After Wrongful Termination

If you believe you were wrongfully terminated, our attorneys can step in immediately to protect your rights and take the pressure off your shoulders. We start by listening to your story, reviewing your termination documents, and identifying whether your employer may have violated California law. Then, we build a strategy tailored to your situation, whether your case involves retaliation, discrimination, whistleblower activity, unpaid wages, or another unlawful reason for firing.

Nuestro Equipo gathers evidence to support your claim, including emails, personnel records, witness statements, performance reviews, and internal complaints. We know what to look for and how to uncover patterns of misconduct that employers often try to hide. We can also communicate directly with your former employer and their legal team, so you don’t have to handle intimidating calls or negotiations on your own.

If a fair settlement is possible, we will pursue it aggressively. If not, we are fully prepared to file a claim, represent you before the appropriate agency, and take your case to court. Throughout the process, you will have direct access to your attorney and regular updates on your case. Our goal is simple: hold your employer accountable and fight for the compensation and justice you deserve.
