Employment defense for select employers

Freiman Legal represents a small number of employers who have been sued by an employee. We take these cases because years of suing employers taught us exactly where the exposure is and what a plaintiff's lawyer will do next.

Who this is for

  • Small and mid-sized employers facing a wrongful termination, discrimination, harassment, retaliation, or wage claim.
  • Employers who received a demand letter, an agency complaint, or a PAGA notice and want to know what it is really worth before they answer it.
  • Employers who want the case resolved quickly and quietly rather than litigated for three years.

We run a conflict check before any conversation about the facts. If we have represented employees against you or your industry in a way that creates a conflict, we will tell you and point you elsewhere.

What you get

An honest valuation on day one. We have sat on the other side of the table in hundreds of these cases. We will tell you what the claim is worth, what it will cost to fight, and which answer is cheaper.

Early resolution where it makes sense. Lawrence Freiman is a trained mediator. Where it makes sense, we resolve the claim before a complaint is filed or shortly after.

Trial if it does not. Some claims should not be paid. Those we defend through trial.

Fixing the problem. Most employee lawsuits trace back to a handbook, a pay practice, or a manager that nobody checked. We will show you what to change so the next claim is less likely, and weaker if it comes.

What we do not do

We do not represent employers in union matters, in class actions as defense counsel, or in matters where we have an existing relationship with the employee. We do not take every employer who calls.

Attorney advertising. Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome.
