Employment Litigation

Employment disputes are inevitable. Botkin Chiarello Calaf’s employment attorneys advocate for our clients at all stages of disputes—from negotiating early resolution of claims and responding to EEOC and state agency charges of discrimination to defending our clients in litigation. We can handle any type of matter, from a California wage and hour class action to a Texas non-compete. We are comfortable litigating in state and federal courts, as well as arbitrations. Our goal is always to help our clients achieve the best outcome for their business under the circumstances, whether through an early settlement or aggressive litigation.

Representative matters include: negotiating dismissal of all class claims in a California wage and hour class action/PAGA lawsuit, resulting in the settlement of the individual’s claim; obtaining a voluntary dismissal of collective action claims in an FLSA case in the Southern District of Texas, and nuisance value settlement of the individual claims; securing a preliminary injunction enforcing non-solicitation obligations; and representing an employer in wrongful termination claims brought by a former executive.
