Workers Only · Oakland, California
Fired unfairly? Harassed? Paid less than the law demands? We represent workers — never employers — and we don't get paid unless you do.
No fee unless we win. Evenings & weekends. English/Español/廣東話.
What We Fight
California has the strongest worker protections in the country. Most people never learn what they're owed. That's the point — and we're the counterpoint.
Fired after reporting problems, taking leave, or getting hurt? "At-will" doesn't mean "for any reason."
Race, gender, age, pregnancy, disability, orientation. Patterns matter — we know how to prove them.
A hostile workplace isn't a personality conflict. It's a legal claim with a deadline.
Off-the-clock work, stolen tips, missed breaks, misclassification. Small amounts add up to big cases.
Punished for speaking up? Retaliation claims are often stronger than the original complaint.
Don't sign that agreement yet. Flat-fee review within 48 hours — before your deadline runs.
Employers count on workers feeling small, replaceable, and alone. You're none of those things. Bring us the texts, the schedules, the pay stubs, the witnesses — we'll bring the law.

The Team
Before law school: a union organizer, a line cook, and a warehouse temp. We remember exactly whose side we're on.
