Can filing a claim affect my future employment?
Under California law, an employee remains shielded from employer retaliation which includes giving unfavorable job references. The exercise of your rights will not result in employers making lists to prevent hiring you. Cielo Law Firm protects your legal rights through all necessary procedures.
Do you offer legal services in other languages?
Yes. Cielo Law Firm provides services in Spanish, Portuguese, and Italian to ensure clear communication for all clients.
What compensation can I recover?

What should I do with my workplace documents and emails?
Preserve all work-related documents, emails, text messages, and communications, but do not take or copy confidential information or trade secrets. If you’re unsure about specific documents, consult with Cielo Law Firm before taking any action.
Can I record conversations with my employer?
California generally requires all parties’ consent for audio recording. However, you can take detailed notes of conversations and meetings. Consult with Dei Voluntas before making any recordings.
What if my employer has asked me to sign a severance agreement?
