Practice Areas Overview

Woodland Hills, California, Employment Law Attorney

Problems arising in a workplace can lead to complex legal disputes. At The Law Offices of Thomas Hoegh, we offer a range of services with a focus on cases involving employment, including employee rights. We have significant experience in even the most sophisticated employment law cases.

Many legal problems for employees will overlap. We have over 20 years of experience in employment law cases and will coordinate a comprehensive solution to maximize your compensation. Contact us for more information.

We can assist you in any of the following areas:

Discrimination: Discrimination in the workplace based on age, sex, religion, disability, or sexual preference is illegal. When you are fired, held back, denied a promotion, or treated differently because of discrimination, you do have rights. We will aggressively pursue your claim to maximize compensation in a discrimination case.

Wrongful termination: Wrongful termination is a cause of action against an employer for discharging an employee for reasons such as discrimination, whistle-blowing, retaliation, or for improperly firing without cause. If you feel that you were wrongfully terminated, you may be entitled to compensation. We can begin an immediate investigation in your case and help you preserve your claim.

Sexual harassment: Sexual harassment may involve threats, inappropriate conduct in the workplace, or quid pro quo sexual offers to gain advancement or promotion. When you are a victim of sexual harassment, you have the right to pursue your claim in court. We can advise you on how to proceed in your case and we can aggressively assert your rights to maximize compensation in your case.

Worker's compensation: if you or someone you love was injured in the workplace, you may be entitled to compensation. We are experienced in the investigation and evidence collection procedures to secure maximum compensation for the victims of workplace injury, and their families. In addition to worker's compensation claims, we also file additional personal injury claims against non-employer third parties who may have been at fault for your injury in order to maximize your compensation.

Disability retirement: Collecting disability retirement benefits through an employer or through the Social Security Administration is a sophisticated process. The complexity of the process leads to the denial of many claims. We will provide the counsel and guidance you need to ensure that your application is correctly filed and that you have the evidence and documentation you need to secure the proper benefits. We can also assist you in the appeal of a denial of disability benefits.

Federal practice and appeals: With over 20 years of experience, we have a sophisticated practice that enables us to handle even the most complex cases involving federal courts and appeals. We have significant trial experience and take an aggressive approach to advocate for our clients in administrative hearings including disability retirement hearings and worker's compensation appeals.
