Serving Employees And Employers

San Francisco Employment Law Attorneys

Having represented both employees and employers for a number of years, our legal professionals at the DeVito Law Group understand both sides of an employment legal issue. From our law offices in Mill Valley, California, our employment law attorneys serve clients in these practice areas:

Harassment / Discrimination

As an employee, you need and have the right to work in an environment free of harassment and discrimination. As an employer, you want to prevent harassment and discrimination from occurring in your place of work and respond adequately and effectively to complaints of harassment and discrimination. Our specialists at the DeVito Law Group can assist you to address your harassment or discrimination concerns.

Disability Accommodations

Disabled employees deserve to have a work environment that allows job performance. If you have been denied a reasonable accommodation by your employer or have been discriminated against for requesting an accommodation, our employment lawyers can advocate for your needs. We will negotiate disability accommodations and advise employers in evaluating procedures for establishing disability accommodations.

Wrongful Termination

If you were wrongfully terminated because of your race, age, religion, national origin, sexual orientation, physical or mental disability, pregnancy, marital status, medical condition, gender or because you complained about your employer’s unlawful conduct, or you refused to engage in unlawful conduct, we at the DeVito Law Group can help you.

Wage And Hour

Our law firm provides representation to employees who have not been compensated or afforded rights in accordance with the various wage and hour laws, including overtime or minimum wages, meal or rest breaks, and unlawful deductions. Our experienced lawyers also assist employers to become compliant with the wage and hour laws.

Sexual Harassment Training / Investigations / Policy Handbooks

Our attorneys at the DeVito Law Group provide employer-specific services with a view toward preventing unlawful conduct in the workplace and ensuring employer compliance with the law. Our employer services include sexual harassment prevention training for management and line-level employees in Spanish and English, conducting investigations into claims of harassment and discrimination, and reviewing, revising and preparing employee policy and procedure manuals.

Whistleblowing

We also counsel employers on the proper classification of workers.
