Unfair Labor Practices
Our Lancaster employment fraud attorneys can help residents of Santa Clarita, Palmdale, Victorville, and beyond who have been wrongfully terminated. If an employer violates the clauses outlined in the National Labor Relations Act or Civil Rights Act, it may be possible to file a claim against the employer for compensation relating to loss of wages. It may also be possible, depending on the circumstances, to file for punitive damages to punish the employer for its illegal actions. Our employment fraud attorneys can review your case and help determine whether you are eligible for compensation. Any of the following actions by an employer or union may be grounds for an unfair labor practices claim:
- Discriminating against an employee because of gender, ethnicity, religious beliefs, sexual orientation, political affiliation, national origin, disability, or any other protected attribute.
- Interfering with or restraining employees who attempt to exercise their rights to engage in protected concerted activity, or coercing employees to refrain from doing so.
- Interfering with the formation or administration of a labor or union organization.
- Discriminating against an employee for filing charges with the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB).
- Forcing an employer or employee to discriminate against another employee.
If you feel that you have been wronged by an employer or union, or if you feel that you have been illegally terminated, our employment fraud attorneys can provide expert legal counsel.

Insurance Fraud
Insurance companies have an obligation to treat policy holders in an ethical manner that is in accordance with the terms of the policy that the customer has signed. If an insurance company fails to do so, then the company can be held liable in court. Among the most common types of insurance disputes are cases involving insurance bad faith and insurance fraud.
- Insurance Bad Faith – If an insurance company arbitrarily denies a valid claim or refuses to pay a policy holder compensation that is due to him or her, it may be possible to bring a bad faith insurance claim against the company. Insurance companies have an obligation to legitimately assess all claims that are filed. If an insurance company fails to exercise good faith, you can pursue legal action in court.
- Insurance Fraud – Fraudulent actions by an insurance company are illegal and can be prosecuted in court. If an insurance company is committing fraudulent acts against its customers, such as charging policy holders who pay yearly less than customers who pay monthly or quarterly even though the policy prohibits such actions, then the insurance company can be held accountable.
We can help if you have been wronged by your insurance provider. Our consumer fraud attorneys have a comprehensive understanding of the law and are well-versed in civil litigation.
