Why Experience in California Employment Law Matters
Employment law requires a deep understanding of detailed statutes, changing regulations, and strict procedural rules. Effective representation depends on attorneys who regularly handle workplace claims and understand how California employment laws apply in real-world situations.

Our firm focuses exclusively on plaintiff-side employment law. This focus allows our attorneys to stay current on legal developments, agency guidance, and court decisions that directly affect employee rights. We apply that experience to help clients understand their options and move forward with clarity.

Why Clients Choose Genie Harrison and her Legal Team
As a boutique firm, we handle fewer cases to give each one the attention it requires. This allows our attorneys to stay closely involved in every case. Genie Harrison personally reviews and oversees every case the firm handles.
California labor and employment law is complex and constantly changing. Our attorneys stay current on these developments and regularly advise employees on workplace rights and legal options. If a case is not a good fit for our firm, we can help connect people with other qualified lawyers.
Experience With Complex Employment Law Matters
Our employment lawyers have represented employees in a wide range of cases. These matters include individual claims, group actions, and class actions. Genie Harrison has served as lead or co-counsel in matters resulting in substantial settlements and verdicts. Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome, and every case depends on its own facts and circumstances.
Sexual Harassment and Sexual Abuse Claims
The firm assists people with problems such as sexual harassment and sexual abuse. They also help with other illegal actions at work and in professional settings. Our attorneys approach these cases with discretion and sensitivity, recognizing the serious impact this conduct can have. We work with clients to evaluate their circumstances and discuss appropriate legal options.
Employment Law Advocacy and Legal Resources
In addition to representing clients, Genie Harrison actively develops legal technology tools that help individuals understand and document potential employment-related claims. This work reflects a broader commitment to expanding access to clear, practical information about employment law and workplace rights.
