Employment Law Attorneys Serving Hollywood

California offers some of the strongest workplace protections in the United States. Our Hollywood employment lawyers help workers pursue justice when employers violate those laws.

Employment Discrimination Lawyers in Hollywood

California’s Fair Employment and Housing Act prohibits discrimination based on protected characteristics such as race, gender, disability, pregnancy, medical condition, age, sexual orientation, gender identity, and national origin. FEHA applies to employers with five or more employees and requires proof that the protected characteristic was a substantial motivating reason for the adverse action.

Hollywood employees often experience:

• Wrongful termination
• Discriminatory demotion or discipline
• Denial of promotions or opportunities
• Adverse actions after pregnancy or disability disclosure
• Unequal treatment or biased decision making

We guide employees through the Civil Rights Department process and the steps required to secure a right to sue.

Sexual Harassment Lawyers in Hollywood

Sexual harassment is illegal when unwelcome conduct becomes severe or pervasive enough to create a hostile work environment. This includes verbal harassment, explicit messages, propositions, or unwanted touching. Quid pro quo harassment is also unlawful. Employers are strictly liable for supervisor harassment and must act quickly when coworkers engage in misconduct.

Hollywood workers frequently report:

• Sexual comments or jokes
• Unwelcome advances
• Harassing messages
• Pressure to date supervisors or coworkers
• Retaliation after reporting harassment
• Failure of HR to investigate or intervene

Retaliation and Whistleblower Claims

California Labor Code 1102.5 protects employees who report illegal activity or workplace misconduct. The Lawson decision strengthened these protections by requiring employees to show that their protected activity was a contributing factor in the adverse action. Employers must then prove lawful behavior through clear and convincing evidence.

Retaliation often includes:

• Termination after reporting misconduct
• Hostile treatment
• Unfair write ups or discipline
• Schedule changes or hour reductions
• Threats or intimidation

Wage and Hour Violations in Hollywood

Brock & Gonzales LLP represents Hollywood workers in wage theft and labor violation cases, including:

• Unpaid overtime
• Off the clock work
• Missed meal and rest breaks
• Misclassification as exempt
• Inaccurate wage statements
• Unreimbursed work expenses

California’s control test requires employers to pay for any time employees are under their control, including mandatory screenings or procedures.

Missed meal and rest break premiums count as wages, meaning unpaid premiums can trigger waiting time and wage statement penalties.

We also represent Hollywood employees in wage and hour class actions involving systemic violations across large workforces.
