“Medina McKelvey was a breath of fresh air—smart, strategic, and proactive. They resolved our lawsuit for less than expected and helped transform our compliance practices to reduce future risk.”
Wage and Hour Lawsuits Often Come Out of Nowhere—and Hit Hard
The legal exposure. The reputational risk. The emotional and financial toll on your leadership and team. It’s more than business—it’s personal.
We get it. We’re business owners too.
We know how hard it is to do the right thing in California’s challenging legal climate. When your business is under attack, it’s natural to want to fight back. And you should. But you’ve got to do it strategically.
Your goal is simple: Get ahead of this.
We’ve counseled thousands of California employers through this exact storm. There’s a path forward. But the sooner you act, the more options you have to reduce penalties and position yourself to win.
Don’t Defend Against Lawsuits.
Outsmart Them.
Wage and hour lawsuits are the biggest legal threat facing California employers. PAGA and class actions are designed to punish and pressure—whether you knew about a violation or not. But thanks to recent changes in the law, you can achieve a winning outcome that leaves your business stronger.
We’ve helped over 1,000 employers do just that.
