• Unpaid Wages/Overtime
  Our San Francisco employment lawyers are fluent in the complexities of both California and federal wage and hour laws. We have recovered millions of dollars in unpaid wages and penalties for workers in northern California.
• Discrimination/Harassment
  We represent workers who have endured discrimination or harassment based on their protected status involving:
  • Race, Ethnic or National Origin - unfair actions or mistreatment in the workplace based on actual or perceived ethnic affiliation.
  • Sexual Harassment - protecting rights and understanding injuries and options for pursuing compensation.
  • Gender Discrimination - adverse actions due to gender bias, including not being hired, being fired or transferred and other unfavorable events.
  • Sexual Orientation - from open hostility to unwanted attention or advances and other adverse behavior by co-workers
  • Disability Rights - denied accommodation because of actual or perceived physical or mental disabilities.
  • Other employment disputes due to age, religion, marital status or health issues.
• Whistleblower Protection
  We represent people who have faced retaliation after reporting that their employers were engaging in unlawful or discriminatory practices.
• Privacy Rights
  California has some of the strongest privacy protections in the nation; yet employers often cross the line. We work to protect employee privacy rights on the job.
• Employee Leave
  We represent employees in connection with leave claims under the California Family Rights Act (CFRA), the California Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA), and the federal Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA), among other laws.
• Class Action Lawsuits
  Our employee rights lawyers are experienced class action attorneys who represent employees and consumers in a wide variety of matters, including wage claims, California labor code violations, employment discrimination law, and other unlawful business practices.
• Advice and Counseling for Employees
  At Rukin Hyland Doria & Tindall, our practice extends beyond litigation. We also advise and represent executives and professionals involved in other critical and time-sensitive employment issues.

Navigation of the complex maze of state, federal and local employment laws can also be a challenge for California employers. Laws intended to clarify employment issues can often create training, policy review, and compliance issues. We also provide advice and counseling for employers.
