Frequently Asked Questions Answered by Employment Attorney

Attorney Henna personally provides every prospective client with a free consultation for up to 60 minutes.  After the initial 60 minutes, she can be consulted on an hourly or flat-rate basis depending on the nature of your dispute.  During the initial consultation, you will speak with Attorney Henna directly, not with an assistant or paralegal.

During the initial consultation, Attorney Henna will collect information about your employment and termination, if applicable.  Accordingly, you should be prepared to provide the dates of relevant events and the names of potential witnesses.  You should also be prepared to discuss all aspects of your case with Attorney Henna because knowing all relevant facts, whether you believe they are good or bad for your case, is one of the most important part of the evaluation process.

The timeframe for filing a civil lawsuit varies depending on the specific case and jurisdiction. In some cases, you may have as little as 180 days to file a complaint. It is important to consult with an experienced Labor and Employment attorney at The Henna Choi Law Firm as soon as possible to ensure that your rights are protected.

In California, employment is presumed to be at will, which means your employer can fire you for any reason or no reason at all.  However, there are exceptions to the at-will employment rule.  For example, if you have a written agreement with your employer, which prohibits the employer from firing you at will, or if the termination is discriminatory or retaliatory, you may be protected from such at-will firing.  If you believe you are about to get fired or you have been fired, we invite you to contact us at The Henna Choi Law Firm.
