A Legacy of Empowerment.
Do you suspect or know your employer wrongfully withheld wages to which you are entitled? If so, legal action may be the only way to get the compensation you are owed. As accomplished employment law attorneys with many successes in wage and hour cases, we at GrahamHollis APC would like to hear your story.
Wage and hour violations are all too common, and there are various types of violations to consider. For example, you may be entitled to significant compensation because:
If you have endured any of these situations, then you should contact us and we can advise whether you have a case. Our employment law attorneys have recovered more than $200 million for California workers. We want to help you, too.
Depending on the circumstances, you may have up to four years to bring your claim for unpaid wages. You can also file a lawsuit against a current or past employer if they failed to pay you all that you are owed. To find out whether you have an unpaid wages claim, contact GrahamHollis APC today. Our employment law attorneys represent clients throughout California.
Our employment law attorneys are skilled litigators and proven leaders in the field of employment law. Once we know the facts of your case, we may recommend that you:
The employment lawyers at GrahamHollis APC have extensive
backgrounds in wage and hour claims, as well as a stellar record of success in the courtroom. We are available to evaluate your wage and hour case and recommend the best path forward.
You can count on our advice to be up to date and our guidance to be customized to your specific situation and your best interests. The goal of your claim should be to recover compensation for you, as well as provide a powerful incentive for your employer to never again commit the same wrong against other employees.
We handle legal claims under various bodies of law, including the Private Attorneys General Act, also known as PAGA. More and more employers are asking employees to sign arbitration agreements that bar class actions. However, it is illegal in California to bar all representative actions. If multiple employees have been affected by an employment law violation, we can determine the best path forward: a PAGA representative action, a class action or both.

Enduring sexual harassment or discrimination on the job is extremely uncomfortable and emotionally draining. But make no mistake: It is illegal for your employer to commit, condone or allow discrimination or harassment in the workplace. If you have been harassed or discriminated against at work, we can assess your case, develop a strategy for holding the wrongdoer accountable, and help you get the compensation you deserve.

Has a manager or coworker called you racial epithets or inappropriately touched you? Were you asked to give up your corner office for a new employee — and the only reason you could detect was a difference in religion? Have you been subjected to jokes or barbs with a sexual or racially biased tone? Any of these occurrences on the job may be evidence of illegal discrimination or harassment, and persistent harassment on the job may amount to a hostile work environment.
Turning to a trusted employment law attorney is a powerful first step in putting a stop to these wrongs. At GrahamHollis APC, we are known throughout California as powerful advocates for employees. We have more than 30 years of experience and an extraordinary record of success, and our legal team takes pride in getting justice for people who have experienced harassment or discrimination in the course of employment.
Let us help you define the problem in legal terms and seek an appropriate legal remedy. Harassment and discrimination are covered under multiple bodies of law, including the California Fair Pay Act, which specifically addresses pay violations based on discrimination.
If you have been harassed or discriminated against at work, and if it is safe to do so, you should first report the wrongdoing to your employer — perhaps with the human resources department at your workplace. Your employer should have explained to you the protocol for reporting discrimination or harassment. If you have questions about where and how to report, we can help you take the appropriate steps.
If you do not get relief after reporting the problem to your employer, the next step is to report to the appropriate government agency. We can guide you through this process, ensure that your rights are protected every step of the way, and take legal action to ensure the best possible outcome for your case.
Many employment claims are brought under the California Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA), which offers much stronger protections than the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC). Under FEHA, you have three years to bring a claim, whereas EEOC claims must be brought within 30 days. We can help you decide which type of claim is best for your specific case.
Strides have been made in recent years to sound an alarm against sexual harassment and discrimination at work, but much more needs to be done. Our attorneys are fully committed to keeping the momentum going — and putting a stop to sexual harassment.
It is important to understand that California has some of the strongest anti-harassment and anti-discrimination laws in the world. Let us use our knowledge of the law to protect your rights.
Ultimately, you may bring a damage claim or civil lawsuit against your employer on the basis of the harassment, discrimination or retaliatory discharge.
What does it mean to win a harassment or discrimination case?
At GrahamHollis APC, you can expect to be taken seriously. Our lawyers and staff can help you get your case started, and we will take assertive legal action on your behalf.

Employment in California is generally “at will,” meaning that employers can let employees go without cause.
California employers fire employees for all kinds of reasons — many of them legal, even if a firing seems “unfair.” Examples of legal reasons for terminating employees are business downsizing, strategic business maneuvers and “poor chemistry” among workers.
Our lawyers have recovered more than $200 million for California workers faced with a wide variety of employment law matters. We want to help you, too. We advise and represent employees on employment law issues in San Diego and throughout California.
The fact that your employer terminated your employment does not, in itself, mean the company broke the law. But there are multiple situations in which termination is illegal.
In California, employees are afforded strong protections against employment law violations. Depending on your circumstances, you may have grounds for a legal claim on the basis of the following:
The law does not allow an employer to fire someone on the basis of that person’s:
If you were mistreated on the job or experienced financial losses due to violations of an employment law, you may have cause to take legal action. First, you may be required to file a complaint with your employer. Next, you may need to complain to a government agency. Retaliation by your employer may occur — and it is likely illegal.
