Employment Law

Oakland-San Francisco Employment Attorneys Focused on Personalized Representation

Those of us in the working world have the right to expect a workplace free of harassment, discrimination and unsafe conditions. Unfortunately, not every employer cares about maintaining a lawful working environment.

Those subjected to workplace injustices are greatly impacted. Psychological problems including emotional distress, loss of self-esteem, depression, anger and frustration are all very common. If not addressed, these symptoms can lead to other problems such as divorce or substance abuse.

The Bay Area attorneys of Gwilliam, Ivary, Chiosso, Cavalli & Brewer have devoted significant efforts over the last 30 years striving to obtain the best possible results for each of our employment law clients. We put forth great effort to make workplaces in Oakland, San Francisco, the Bay Area, Northern California and beyond friendlier and fairer work environments. If you feel you may have been mistreated in the workplace, do not hesitate to contact a San Francisco employment attorney for a case review at no charge.

Limiting Our Caseload to Provide the Attention You Deserve

Although we have had a number of significant and highly-publicized successes in the area of employment law, we are not a high-volume practice. We place a much greater emphasis on keeping the interests of our clients first and foremost in mind.

For this reason, our employment lawyers accept only a small percentage of the cases they review and focus on particularly egregious or complex violations of employment law. Specific types of cases we handle involve:

• Discrimination related to gender, disability or race, sexual preference.
• Harassment claims including those of a sexual nature
• Whistleblower claims and retaliation for such
• Wrongful termination  of employment
• Reports of unsafe working conditions

Getting You the Help You Need in the Bay Area

In handling these cases over the years, we have come to understand how the wrongful conduct of employers and hostile work environments dramatically affect the lives of victims and those around them. We take a holistic approach to representing clients. By listening to the problems facing you and your family, we can offer more comprehensive representation, even referring you to various counseling options.

We understand you are apprehensive about your employment future and the legal process. We make communication a priority and keep you apprised of every aspect of your case from the initial interview forward.
