EMPLOYEE RIGHTS

Employees have the right to a safe and healthy work environment, fair wages, and freedom from discrimination and harassment. They also have the right to unionize and to participate in collective bargaining. Employees may have the right to certain benefits such as health insurance, vacation, and sick leave. Employees also have the right to access their personnel records and to be notified of any changes in their employment status. Finally, employees have the right to file a complaint if they feel their rights have been violated.

In California, the employee rights of workers are violated at an alarming rate and spurring lawsuits. Lawyers point out that 90% of employment law class action cases are wage and hour lawsuits. Employment law violations are so rampant the Department of Labor (DOL) has increased their budget for Wage and Hour Division (WHD) investigations to $266 million.

    If I can give them more than 5 stars, I would. I really can't thank this firm enough. I came across LibertyBell Law Group after a recommendation from my next door neighbor. I needed legal help on a pretty complex matter. After speaking with their office a few times I decided to hire them. I am so glad I did. These guys were so thorough, so dedicated to my case. They are truly the best at what they do. I am so thankful for everything they did for me. Highly recommended. You will not be disappointed.
