When you go to work each day, you deserve to focus on your goals – not worry about discrimination, harassment, or wage violations. Unfortunately, many employees across California experience unfair treatment from their employers, often without realizing they have legal options.
At Matern Law Group, our Sacramento team of employment lawyers is committed to fighting for employees’ rights and holding companies accountable for unlawful practices. Whether your case involves wrongful termination, harassment, unpaid wages, or retaliation, our employment law firm provides powerful advocacy to help you move forward.
As experienced employment attorneys, we understand how intimidating it can feel to challenge an employer. You may fear retaliation or financial instability – but the law may be on your side. Our team works tirelessly to protect employment rights across industries, ensuring every worker has access to fair treatment, equal opportunity, and a safe workplace.
Our firm represents employees in a wide range of cases, including:
If your employer has violated your rights, we can help you understand your options, assess potential liability, and pursue justice through negotiation or litigation.
California has some of the strongest employment law protections in the nation. These include laws under the Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA), the California Labor Code, and federal statutes such as Title VII of the Civil Rights Act and the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA).
Our attorneys have deep knowledge of these labor laws and use them to defend workers against illegal actions like wrongful dismissal, discrimination, or retaliation. Whether you’re a private-sector employee, union member, or public worker, our team is prepared to guide you through every step of the legal process.
Wage failure occurs when employers fail to pay employees properly for the hours they work. This may include unpaid overtime, missed meal or rest breaks, or the denial of lawful benefits. These violations not only impact your finances but can also amount to serious labor law breaches.
At Matern Law Group, our attorneys have successfully recovered unpaid wages, penalties, and compensation for countless California employees. Whether your employer misclassified you as an independent contractor or withheld pay, we’ll fight to make sure you receive every dollar you’ve earned.
Sometimes, employment issues overlap with workers’ compensation matters. For instance, an employee injured on the job may later face discrimination on the basis of the injury, or retaliation or wrongful termination for filing a claim. Our employment lawyers collaborate with trusted partners in workers’ compensation law to ensure you’re fully protected and can proceed with both claims.
You have the right to file for job-protected leave or accommodations after an injury – and your employer cannot punish you for doing so. Our team helps employees assert these rights under both state and federal law.
Our attorneys proudly serve both private-sector employees and public workers, including government and municipal employees. We’ve represented peace officers, educators, healthcare professionals, and state employees across California who have experienced retaliation, harassment, or denial of benefits.
Every worker – whether in the private or public sector – deserves equal protection under employment law. If your rights have been violated, our law firm is here to fight for you.
Our employment practice covers the full spectrum of workplace issues, including but not limited to:
We know each employment case is personal. That’s why our attorneys tailor strategies to your specific situation, ensuring your story is heard and your rights are defended.
