Our Firm
Six attorneys, who had extensive experience in, and a passion for, representing public sector management in the areas of employment law and labor relations, got together and started our firm in 1980. Over the years we grew that practice to become California’s preeminent public management employment law firm with over 80 attorneys in five offices. Some years ago we added an education law specialty to our practice to meet the needs of our school and college clients. We consider ourselves fortunate indeed to have our interest matched by having built our practice in one of the most dynamically evolving areas of the law; one that challenges our attorneys to constantly stay on top of the ever-expanding legislative, administrative and court decisional law. Our passion for servicing the needs of our clients in our specialized area of practice remains as true today as it did in 1980.
