California Employment Law Lawyer
There are no bad dogs, only bad dog owners. A dog is not predisposed to attack or bite someone unless the animal is in danger or feels threatened. But if you are bitten or attacked by a dog and you have not posed any threat to the animal, you could be the victim of a negligent or careless owner who failed to control or supervise their pet.
A California employment law lawyer can help you navigate the complex legal landscape and protect your livelihood if you are facing a workplace dispute. Employment law is designed to shield workers from illegal treatment by their employers, covering vital protections against discrimination, wage theft, and retaliation.
At Sasooness Law Group, we are committed to helping workers in Woodland Hills, Victorville, and San Jose get justice. We handle everything from complex litigation to internal negotiations to ensure your voice is heard. If you believe your employer has broken the law, we are here to provide the aggressive representation you need.

Workplace Discrimination and Harassment
Federal and state laws make it illegal for employers to treat you poorly because of who you are. In California, the Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA) protects you from discrimination based on various protected characteristics.
Our workplace discrimination lawyer team handles a wide range of sensitive cases, including:
- Workplace Discrimination Claims
- Sexual Harassment Claims and Gender Identity Discrimination
- Age Discrimination (ADEA) and Disability Discrimination (ADA)
- Pregnancy Discrimination
- Hostile Work Environment Claims
Important laws, including Title VII of the Civil Rights Act and the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), give you the right to work in a professional setting free from harassment. You do not have to tolerate being targeted or bullied at work.
Wage and Hour Violations
The law is very clear about how you should be compensated for your time. In fiscal year 2025, the U.S. Department of Labor hit a pivotal year, with the Wage and Hour Division recovering more than $259 million in back wages for 176,957 employees nationwide.
An unpaid wages claim often arises when an employer fails to pay for all hours worked, such as requiring you to work through lunch breaks or “off the clock.”
We provide counsel for various pay-related issues, such as:
- Unpaid Wages Claims (including missing commissions or bonuses)
- Overtime Pay Disputes (miscalculating “time-and-a-half” rates)
- Minimum Wage Violations
Some companies also try to save money by misclassifying workers as independent contractors when they are actually employees. A skilled employee rights attorney can help you recover missing pay plus additional damages for the violation of your labor rights.
Wrongful Termination and Retaliation
While most employment in California is “at-will,” an employer cannot fire you for illegal reasons.
We can help individuals who were let go because they spoke up about safety or reported illegal activity.
Our firm represents employees in cases involving:
- Wrongful Termination (including Wrongful Termination During FMLA Leave)
- Retaliation Claims and Whistleblower Retaliation Claims
- Workplace Safety Complaints
Retaliation happens when an employer punishes you for filing a complaint or participating in an investigation. We fight to make sure that standing up for what is right, protected under California’s whistleblower statutes, does not cost you your career.
Family and Medical Leave Rights
The Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) ensures that eligible workers can take time off for serious health issues or to care for family without losing their jobs. An FMLA attorney protects workers when an employer denies a leave request or retaliates against someone for using their protected time. Additionally, the California Family Rights Act (CFRA) provides expanded leave protections for employees within the state.
We assist with specialized leave and accommodation matters, including:
- FMLA Leave Disputes
- Disability Accommodation Requests
- Pregnancy and Parental Leave Claims
- Nursing Mothers Workplace Rights (under the PUMP Act)
If your employer refuses to accommodate your health needs or interferes with your leave, we can step in to protect your professional standing and your future.

Thank you Sasooness Law Group!
A very special thank you to Briant Robles and Lior Behdadnia.
I cannot say enough good things about my experience with Sasooness Law Group. From the very first consultation, their team showed genuine care, professionalism, and dedication to helping me through my car injury case. What could have been an overwhelming and stressful process was made so much easier thanks to their guidance and expertise.
Briant Robles, my case manager, took time to listen to every detail of my situation, explained each step of the legal process clearly, and kept me informed throughout the entire journey. I always felt that my case mattered to them, and that level of personal attention made all the difference.
Their expertise in personal injury law was evident — they handled negotiations with confidence and precision, ensuring I received a fair and favorable outcome. Beyond their legal skill, what truly stood out was their compassion. They treated me like a person, not just a case number, and that kind of respect and empathy is rare. Especially Briant.
I’m deeply grateful for their time, dedication, and unwavering support. If you’re looking for a personal injury attorney who truly cares and delivers exceptional results, I wholeheartedly recommend Sasooness Law Group.
