Your Experience is an Asset. Let’s Protect It.
You’ve spent decades building your career and expertise. If your employer is trying to push you out in favor of younger, lower-paid staff, they are breaking the law. We help California workers over 40 hold companies accountable for age-based bias.
In California, it is illegal for employers to discriminate against workers age 40 and older. Yet, age bias remains one of the most common workplace injustices. It shows up in "restructuring" that only affects older staff, comments about "cultural fit," or being passed over for promotions while younger, less-experienced workers get the lead. If you’ve been sidelined or pushed out because of your age, you deserve justice. It’s time to level the playing field.
If a "reduction in force" seems to systematically target only the most senior, highest-paid employees in the company.
Being told you are "overqualified" when in reality the employer just wants someone younger and cheaper.
Persistent jokes or comments about your age, retirement plans, or ability to keep up with "modern" technology.
Any effort to pressure you into retirement before you are ready, or removing your responsibilities to force you to quit.
Being excluded from training opportunities or mentorship programs that are exclusively offered to your younger colleagues.
Being demoted or given an unfair performance review after you voice concerns about age-based treatment.
Employers think they can save money by pushing out high-earning, experienced workers and replacing them with cheaper, inexperienced labor. They hide this intent behind complex "reorganizations" or "personality clashes." We know how to find the patterns. By analyzing company-wide personnel data and historical performance reviews, we expose the bias behind the curtain.
“Your years of experience are a testament to your value, not an excuse for an employer to cut corners. We stand by those who have built their careers and refuse to let them be discarded.” — Avi Gholian, Founding Attorney
We work on a contingency basis. You pay nothing unless we recover compensation for the damage done to your career.
We utilize both federal (ADEA) and state (FEHA) laws to provide the strongest possible protection for older workers.
We use legal discovery to force companies to show their true hiring and firing patterns, often uncovering clear evidence of age bias.
You do not need to figure this out alone. We keep the process clear, explain what matters, and help you understand what comes next.
No high-pressure sales. Just an honest talk about your situation and how we can help.
We evaluate your performance history, the specific comments or actions taken against you, and your employer's pattern of conduct.
We gather your performance reviews, emails, and any documentation regarding the changes in your role or termination.
We create a clear, chronological narrative of age-based bias and calculate the financial impact on your life and career.
We pursue your employer for full damages, aiming to hold them accountable for the illegal termination or discriminatory treatment.
