Oakland Workplace Retaliation Lawyers

A common concern when employees are considering taking action to defend their rights against unscrupulous employers is that the employer will strike back at the employee. There are numerous state and federal laws that govern what an employer can and cannot do regarding to their employees. These laws cover a wide variety of issues, including:

• Sexual harassment
• Pregnancy discrimination
• Race discrimination
• Disability discrimination

• Race harassment

A key component of those protections is that there are built-in protections for employees against any retaliatory actions that an employer may take. Without this type of protection, it would be difficult for those other laws to be effective. Without the assurance of anti-retaliation laws, many employees would likely be unable to stand up for their rights.

At The Armstrong Law Firm, our Oakland retaliation attorneys are dedicated to helping employees fully exercise their rights under the law. Part of that is ensuring that employers are held accountable when they have taken some action against an employee who has pursued their rights.

The Armstrong Law Firm was very knowledgeable and aggressive in representing me against a company that previously refused to take my claims seriously until I hired Kelly Armstrong and her lawyers. I am very happy with the resolution of my case and recommend them to all employees who need excellent lawyers."

There were five of us female employees who were sexually harassed at work … for years. The daily sexual comments, cat calls, leering, staring, grabbing and gross remarks made us feel sick and like we were just objects. Management didn't take it seriously until we hired Kelly Armstrong of The Armstrong Law Firm. She took over our case and made the other side pay all of us for our emotional distress. I highly recommend her to all sexual harassment victims who want her to fight for them to the finish."

My manager began harassing and discriminating against me after I told him I was pregnant … He began trying to set me up for termination by falsely accusing me of poor work performance … Kelly Armstrong and her team achieved a financial resolution for me that sent a clear message to my employer and allowed me to resume my life in a positive way."
