Liberation Law Group has more than 25 years of experience representing Hispanic workers, and operates entirely in Spanish without interpreters. Call <strong>1-888-442-2642<\/strong>.<br \/>\nShould I hire a specialized employment attorney or a general practice attorney?<br \/>\nFor discrimination, sexual harassment, wage theft, or wrongful termination cases, you should always hire an attorney who handles employment law cases \u2014 not a general practice attorney. California employment law is complex and specific. The laws, deadlines, correct forums, and strategies are very different from other areas of law. An attorney who does not practice employment law can make costly mistakes. Employment law is the focus of Liberation Law Group&#8217;s practice. Call <strong>1-888-442-2642<\/strong>.<br \/>\nWhat questions should I ask when interviewing employment attorneys?<br \/>\nThe most important questions include: how many cases similar to mine have you handled; what was the typical outcome of those cases; how do you charge (contingency or hourly); do you speak fluent Spanish without interpreters; how long will the process take; and who will be my primary point of contact during the case. Liberation Law Group can answer all of these questions in the free consultation. We work on contingency \u2014 no fee unless we win. The consultation is completely free. Call <strong>1-888-442-2642<\/strong>.<br \/>\nWhat difference does hiring an attorney make versus going to the Labor Commissioner alone?<br \/>\nThe Labor Commissioner is free and can resolve straightforward unpaid wage cases. But it has significant limitations: it cannot award all the types of damages that a civil lawsuit allows, the process can be slower than expected, and without representation you are at a disadvantage when the employer brings their own attorneys. An employment attorney can use the right forum to maximize your recovery \u2014 Labor Commissioner, civil lawsuit, PAGA, or class action \u2014 and can negotiate with the employer from a position of equality. <a href=\"#\">Read about the Labor Commissioner process.<\/a><br \/>\nIs suing in San Francisco the same as in another Northern California city?<br \/>\nEmployment law is state law \u2014 the same rules apply in San Francisco, Salinas, Santa Rosa, or Vallejo. However, local courts have their own particular characteristics, and an attorney experienced in the courts of a specific county can navigate those nuances more effectively. Liberation Law Group has litigated in the Superior Courts of San Francisco, Sonoma, Napa, Marin, Solano, Monterey, Santa Cruz, and San Mateo. We know those systems. Call <strong>1-888-442-2642<\/strong>.<br \/>\nHow much does the initial consultation with Liberation Law Group cost?<br \/>\nThe initial consultation is completely free, no obligation, and with no time limit.
