Employment Legislation | Employer Defense Litigation

If a current or past employee has filed a claim alleging wrongdoing by your organization, or if a lawsuit is already underway, Rialto Employer Defense Lawyer Carter can help you navigate these challenges and reach a favorable outcome. He works to protect your company’s operations during each phase of the dispute, from pretrial negotiations to courtroom proceedings and any resulting appeals. The case is carefully analyzed so that an effective and thorough defense is provided. Our employer defense law firm offers representation and guidance on many types of employment law disputes:


Employee Compensation

Calculating wages accurately is vital in keeping a company protected from disputes. Our firm works to help your company make sure wages are properly calculated and paid, advising on all related issues. We assist companies that operate in industries that are highly regulated and require more complex wage calculations. Call us to discuss any questions you may have about disputes stemming from employee compensation or wage calculations. We help organizations maintain compliance with the appropriate regulations so as to avoid employee lawsuits and claims as well as resolve any existing disputes.


Rialto Attorney Carter offers effective guidance to protect your enterprise’s interests when an employee has leveled an accusation or claim of missing or improperly calculated wages. He counsels business owners and officers on the full range of wage dispute issues:


  • Meal & Rest Breaks
  • Independent Contractor Status
  • Fair Labor Standards Act
  • Severance Negotiations
  • Waiting Time Penalties
  • Employee Benefit Claims
  • Employee Retirement Income Security Act
  • Independent Contractors Misclassification
  • Wage / Hour Laws

Terminating Employment

If the time has come to terminate the employment of a worker, there may be specific procedures that govern the process and demand adherence. Lawyer Carter helps your human resources department as well as the company managers and officers to comply with such regulations. Such compliance protects your organization from the expense of an employee lawsuit or claim. In certain situations, a contract or specific amount of notice could be required before the employee is let go. Termination Lawyer Carter can advise your managers on proper compliance with legislation regarding laying off, hiring, and firing workers.


If a worker was already dismissed and the legally required procedures were mistakenly not respected, it is possible that an employee dispute or lawsuit may result. In such a case, our firm can still work to protect your interests and limit the damage such a dispute may inflict. In other situations, the proper procedures may indeed have been followed, but the employee may claim otherwise and accuse your company of non-compliance or other wrongdoing. In this type of scenario as well, Employer Rights Attorney Thomas Carter has the knowledge and experience needed to uphold your interests. He is ready to provide reliable advice on many types of employee termination issues:


  • Discrimination
  • Retaliation
  • Workers Compensation
  • Violation of Employment Contract
  • Whistleblower Protection Laws
  • PAGA
  • FMLA
  • 132a Claims
  • Labor Commissioner Hearings


Long-Range Benefits of Risk Prevention

The effects of an employee dispute can be severe and include damage to the company’s finances and reputation. In comparison, the costs of risk prevention are quite minimal and well worth the effort. Rialto Employer Defense Attorney Carter offers reliable guidance on how to implement compliant processes that help your company avoid employee issues and greatly reduce the risk of a dispute and associated costs. He will review your current procedures and policies to look for any areas of non-compliance that could create vulnerability and help your business shore up these areas to increase its protection from employee lawsuits. This increases stability and provides long-term security of operations.
