When it comes to the workplace, every employee should feel safe and protected. Unfortunately, this is often not the reality for many workers. If you or someone you love has had their legal rights violated, contacting a Chino employment lawyer is essential. They’ll be able to help you understand your options under state law.
Nosratilaw, A Professional Law Corporation, has over 20 years of combined legal experience. Our three attorneys and legal staff have dedicated their professional careers to protecting California communities against corporate injustice.
We understand the widespread impact that employee rights violations can have. Our office offers free consultations to those in Chino and surrounding towns who need to explore their legal options. We help employees with a wide variety of employment law cases.
Chino is known for its smaller-town charm and business-friendly environment. Historically, it has been a hub for agriculture and dairy farming. Today, it has a wide range of businesses due to its skilled workforce, infrastructure, and great location near shipping ports, airports, and major freeways.
Unfortunately, with more businesses comes more instances of workplace rights being violated. In California in 2023, there were a total of 4,072 employment cases filed with the California Civil Rights Department. The most cases filed were for disability discrimination.
The Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA) is a state law that protects people from discrimination and harassment at work based on certain personal characteristics. These characteristics include:
It was found that 46% of California’s hourly service workers had at least one violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act in 2024, and about 41% had at least one serious violation. In most California jobs, wages must be paid at least twice a month, on regular paydays chosen ahead of time by the employer. These paydays must be:
Under state law, Californians should have an equal chance to succeed at work. Harassment is considered illegal when it creates a work environment that:
An employee doesn’t have to prove that their productivity dropped. It’s enough to show that a reasonable person would find that the harassment made working conditions harder.
Even a single incident can be enough to support a claim if it significantly interferes with work or creates a hostile atmosphere. It’s important to hire an employment lawyer to help represent the facts and evidence of your case to the court. We regularly represent our Chino clients at the San Bernardino Superior Court, located at 247 West Third Street.
At Nosratilaw, A Professional Law Corporation, our team is here to fight for you. Our attorneys approach every case with the dignity and empathy it deserves. You’re more than just a case number to us; you’re a real human being with rights that deserve to be protected.
We operate on a contingency fee basis. This means that we only receive payment if we secure compensation for your case.
In California, overtime wages must be paid no later than the next regular payday. If extra hours are not included in the current paycheck, they can be corrected on the next paycheck, but the correction must state the pay period it applies to. If you suspect that you haven’t been paid correctly, reach out to a lawyer to help you understand your rights.
If an employer does not pay an employee their wages as required by California law, they can face penalties. For the first violation, the employer must pay $100 for each employee who was not paid correctly. For later violations, or if the violation was willful or intentional, the penalty is $200 per employee plus 25% of the unpaid wages. The penalty can be recovered either by the employee through opening a legal claim with the help of a lawyer.
There are a few instances that may constitute wrongful termination in California. State law protects employees from being fired for speaking up about workplace safety. If an employee is fired for filing a complaint about unpaid wages, making a report to the Labor Commissioner, participating in legal proceedings, or asserting rights under labor laws, this is also wrongful termination. It’s important to consult with an attorney to understand if you’ve been wrongfully terminated.
We frequently see two kinds of workplace sexual harassment. The first is “quid pro quo.” This happens when someone offers or withholds a job or work benefit based on your willingness to accept sexual advances. The second is “hostile work environment”, which occurs when actions based on sex create an offensive workplace. If you believe you have experienced sexual harassment or retaliation, you can file a complaint with California’s Civil Rights Department within three years of the last incident.
Nosratilaw, A Professional Law Corporation, is here to advocate for you when you need it most. Every worker deserves to feel safe and respected at their place of employment. For those who face disrespect and unease, it can affect every aspect of their life.
We offer free consultations to employees in Chino and surrounding towns who need to understand their rights. Contact our team today to learn how we can assist you during this difficult time.
