Contingency Fees and Employee-Only Representation
Contingency-fee basis
Clients pay no attorney fee unless there is a recovery through settlement or judgment. Ask how case costs are handled and read the written agreement before signing.
Employees exclusively, not employers
The firm states that it never takes employers as clients, so there are no employer relationships competing with a worker's interests.
Recognition the Firm Lists
As published on LFECR's About page
- Martindale-Hubbell Peer Rating 5.0/5.0 and Client Rating 4.7/5.0
- Avvo Client's Choice awards
- Memberships including NELA, CELA, Consumer Attorneys of California, and CAALA
- More than $100 million recovered since 2015 (firm-reported; past results do not guarantee future outcomes)
Recognition is a useful signal, but it is not a substitute for asking a firm direct questions about your case.
Who This Listing Fits
This listing is most useful for California workers who were fired, underpaid, denied breaks or leave, misclassified, harassed, or retaliated against, and who want a firm that works only for employees. The firm's employee rights overview gives a general sense of the issues it handles.
What to Expect After You Reach Out
According to the firm, a case evaluator collects your information first and shares it with the legal team, so you may be asked to tell your story more than once. An attorney then reviews whether the firm can take the matter. The review is free and carries no obligation.
Checking Any Employee Rights Firm in This Directory
- Search each attorney on the State Bar of California licensee search.
- Ask whether the firm ever represents employers.
- Get fee terms in writing, including how costs are handled.
- Read reviews across platforms and look for patterns. LFECR averaged 4.3 on Google across roughly 700 reviews at the time of writing, with both praise and complaints.
- Check the firm's BBB profile. LFECR's shows an A+ rating and notes that it is not BBB accredited.
