Answer these FAQ questions
Find someone who regularly files and litigates in San Diego Superior Court and understands the local employer mix — biotech, tourism, startups — because the dynamics vary by industry. Ask whether they’ve taken cases to hearing, not just written demand letters. A free initial consultation is standard, and it’s the best way to tell if an attorney actually listens.
Most employment attorneys, including our firm, work on contingency, so there’s no upfront cost — we only get paid if we recover money for you, usually 33–40% of the settlement or verdict. The first consultation is free and confidential, which means you can get a straight answer on whether you have a claim before putting anything on the line.
California’s FEHA gives you three years from the discriminatory act to file with the Civil Rights Department, plus another year to sue once they issue a right-to-sue letter. Federal EEOC claims must be filed within 300 days. Wage and retaliation cases run on different clocks, so the sooner you talk to an attorney, the more options you’ll have.
If your employer has 50+ employees within 75 miles and you’ve been there at least a year, yes — 12 unpaid weeks are protected for a serious illness, a new child, or caring for family. California’s CFRA goes further, covering employers with as few as five workers and a broader definition of family. Retaliation for taking leave is illegal.
Yes, when the distress is tied to unlawful conduct — harassment, discrimination, retaliation, or wrongful termination. FEHA lets you recover for emotional harm along with lost wages and other damages. Workplace stress without an underlying violation usually belongs in workers’ comp, but if there’s real legal wrong behind it, a civil suit is the path forward.
