DEEMS & KELLER LLP

Employment Law

The Employment Law practice at Deems & Keller is primarily employer-based and is premised upon the tested belief that effective counseling in the employment arena can often minimize or even prevent costly and protracted litigation. With that in mind, we encourage early intervention in employee – employer disputes. Where litigation is unavoidable or has already been instituted, we offer experienced representation in court and before state and federal agencies responsible for oversight of the work place. Deems & Keller also represents both employers and employees in wage/hour claims under the California Department of Labor, Division of Labor Standards Enforcement laws. We have successfully handled numerous wage/hour claims before the labor commission in the local district offices. An in-depth knowledge of the constantly changing state and federal employment laws is key to advising employers and employees on issues involving employment related problems. Our attorneys are experienced in handling issues involving employment discrimination, harassment, public policy violations, the Americans with Disabilities Act, the Family and Medical Leave Act, the Fair Employment and Housing Act, and other laws governing the workplace.
