Who we are

Eghbali Law Firm is a California employment law firm representing workers — not companies, not HR, not insurers. Our practice is built around the California Fair Employment and Housing Act, the Labor Code, and the federal laws that protect employees alongside them. We litigate harassment, discrimination, wrongful termination, retaliation, hostile work environment, pregnancy and disability accommodation, and wage and hour cases statewide.

What we believe

The employer–employee relationship is the most economically important relationship most people will ever have. When it breaks down because of harassment, discrimination, or retaliation, the damage isn't just to a paycheck — it's to a person's career, mental health, family, and sense of self. We take that seriously. We get on the phone fast, explain what your rights are in plain English, and tell you the truth about your case — what's strong, what's weak, what's realistic.

"California has some of the strongest employee protections in the country. We make sure they reach the people they were written for."

How we work

Contingency fees. No retainer, no hourly bill, no surprise invoice. You pay us if and when we recover for you. Costs (filing fees, depositions, expert witnesses) are advanced by the firm and reimbursed only out of recovery. The first call is always free.

We're aggressive in court when we need to be — but we're also realistic. Most employment cases settle. We push hard for the settlement number that makes sense for your situation, and when an employer won't move, we try the case.

Where we serve

We represent California workers in all 58 counties. Five physical offices — Los Angeles, Orange County (Santa Ana), San Diego, San Jose, and Sacramento — let us appear in person at any superior court in the state. Most consultations begin by phone or video, with in-person meetings scheduled as cases progress.
