As an Employee, You Have Rights
Everyone deserves a safe and respectful workplace. When that is compromised, it is essential to understand your rights. The trauma of suffering harm at work and the reality that your employer is not going to come to your defense can feel devastating. However, both state and federal law provide solid safeguards for workers, ensuring they can ask for damages when unlawful behavior occurs.
Our attorneys have worked with workers throughout Oregon and California facing difficult workplace situations. We also represent small-business employers, providing a 360-degree view of your employment situation to help you understand your options. We proudly support unions and represent union members in disputes.
