Employment law help for people who work in California
Tell us what happened, send what you have, and we pass it to an employment law firm who decides whether they can act for you.
You can stop and come back — everything is saved as you go. Nothing is sent to your employer.
Nothing to find out
There is no charge for the questions, the upload, or the review.
It costs nothing
No charge for the questions, the upload, or the firm's decision about whether they can act.
Your employer isn't told
Nothing goes to anyone you work for. What happens after a case goes ahead is yours to decide.
A real lawyer reads it
Your case goes to one employment law firm licensed in California — not a call centre, not a mailing list.
Ready to act on
Your answers are structured against what a claim needs and your documents are sorted, so gaps are flagged rather than hidden.
Things people describe
If any of this sounds like your situation, that does not tell you whether anything went wrong — it tells you it may be worth having someone look.
There is nobody to cover, so the break does not happen.
You were let go and the final payment did not come that day.
Pick whichever is closest
You do not need to get it right, and you do not need to know the name of the problem — the questions are the same either way.
Disability and accommodationAsking for a change at work because of a health condition.Discrimination at workBeing treated differently because of who you are.Harassment at workBehaviour that made the job hard to do.Losing your jobYou were dismissed, and the reason given does not match what you saw.Meal break problemsBreaks that were late, short, interrupted, or did not happen.Off-the-clock workWork before clocking in, after clocking out, or during a break.
Four steps, and what happens at each one
Each step exists to get your case in front of a lawyer able to act on it, not to put obstacles in the way.
01
You answer questions
They start broad and get more specific based on what you say. You can stop and come back — everything is saved as you go.
02
You send documents
Payslips, time records, letters, messages. Your browser locks each one with a key that only exists on your device before it leaves.
03
A law firm reads it
We prepare your case and send it to an employment law firm in California. They see your employer's name and the kind of problem first, so they can check for conflicts.
04
You hear back
If they take it on, you deal with them directly. If they do not, we tell you — and that is not a decision about whether you have a claim.
What we can and cannot see
When you upload something, your browser locks it before it leaves your device, using a key held on that device and in your recovery code. We do not have a copy of that key.
So the accurate summary is: we cannot open your files, and we can read what was worked out from them.
What you should know before you start
Answering the questions and sending your documents is free, and so is the firm's decision about whether they can act.
Nothing is sent to anyone you work for.
Still working there is common, and it does not stop you finding out where you stand.
You can delete a document, and deleting it destroys the sealed file.
We cannot tell you whether you have a case, and we will not pretend otherwise.
Using this site does not make anyone your lawyer.
Tell us what happened. A law firm takes it from there.
The questions take most people well under an hour, and you can do them in pieces. Send what you have — a gap is a normal part of a case and not a reason to stop.
Tell us what happenedAlready started? Pick up where you left off
Claims about work usually have time limits, and they can be shorter than people expect. We cannot tell you what your own time limit is — that depends on your situation. If this matters to you, it is worth finding out sooner rather than later.
