The Employment relationship is among the most important bonds in our lives. It impacts families, fuels economies and brings dreams to fruition. It stretches from a first paycheck until retirement, and from the moment a business opens its doors. But it is a fragile, complicated and regulated relationship, particularly in California.
At The Craigie Law Firm we exclusively practice Employment Law. We are there at the beginning, when offers are made. We are there to develop and implement policies. We are there when the Employment relationship is strained or breaks down. We negotiate and, when necessary, we marshal our decades of courtroom experience to fight for our client, You.
