Older Articles by the Watkins Firm
The Watkins Firm is a business law and corporate law firm located in San Diego, California. We offer 40+ years of experience serving the business, science and tech, real estate and medical / healthcare communities here in San Diego and across California. We believe California is, by far, the most challenging and regulated state in which to be an employer. California employers are constantly challenged with disputes, lawsuits and class actions for everything from wage and hour violations to PAGA class actions.
The employer defense attorneys at the Watkins Firm believe a good defense starts with a strong offense. Tightening up the employee handbook, policies and procedures, record keeping, paycheck information and employment files will go a long way to preventing an employment defense dispute before it starts to happen. We provide employment defense for disputes and lawsuits ranging from unpaid overtime, retaliation, and wrongful termination to sexual harassment and the violation of state regulations.
Our dispute resolution attorneys have a strong track record resolving breach of contract, business to business disputes, unfair business practices, and disputes involving shareholders, investors, partners, members in an LLC, and other stakeholders.
