Legal Question in Employment Law in California

Whether it is worth it to sue depends on many factors. What are your claims, are they valid, timely and what is your evidence or proof? 95% of all cases settle before trial. Whether your case would prevail at trial depends on the facts and evidence. Call an employment law attorney to discuss. Many of us offer a free initial phone consultation. For discrimination, harassment or retaliation in the workplace to be unlawful, it has to be based on a protected class (age, race, gender, religion, medical condition, etc.) Also, if you asserted a legal right (example: overtime pay) or were a whistleblower (turned the company into the IRS for not paying taxes, as an example) and have been retaliated against, that would be unlawful.
