Workers have the right to a safe work environment free from harassment and discrimination. We help both employees and employers to negotiate employment and severance agreements, ensure compliance with Title VII, the American with Disabilities Act, and other employment laws, and to represent licensed professionals when they face disciplinary action, among other legal services.

Caballero Law can help you with reviewing employment and termination agreements, filing and mediating charges before the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the Hawaiʻi Civil Rights Commission, and the California Civil Rights Department, and providing legal advice on difficult work situations, including discrimination, retaliation, requests for reasonable accommodations, and forced resignations.

Some representative matters include:

• Settling an age discrimination and retaliation lawsuit against the Honolulu Fire Department brought by a forty-five year-old recruit who was terminated from the academy after he complained of age discrimination to his superior and the union.

• Successful appeal to the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals reinstating a disability discrimination lawsuit brought by a disabled federal employee who was denied their reasonable accommodation request to use donated paid leave and who was relocated to a workplace that did not accommodate their disability.

• Reviewing and negotiating six-figure severance and settlement agreements without the need for litigation.

• Providing advice on non-compete and non-solicitation provisions.
