Healthcare represents the largest category of employers nationwide. Roughly 9% of America’s health-related employees, currently 1,137,820 in total, reside here in California. Kaiser Permanente, representing one of today’s largest private healthcare consortiums, employs numerous nurses, CNAs, doctors, and other medical staff across Los Angeles County and statewide. They’re known for disloyalty toward employees, manifesting in the form of pay disparity and working long hours without scheduled breaks.
JML Law, an outstanding Los Angeles healthcare law attorney fighting for healthcare workers’ rights, knows the importance of effective litigation. With many employees at companies like Kaiser Permanente fighting to launch their careers, unethical labor practices must be handled proficiently. Our team provides uncompromising quality at all phases of employment law claims.
JML Law Excels In Healthcare Cases.
Discrimination. Unethical hiring practices. Unpaid wages. Claims brought to us vary in severity and potential monetary damages, with no two cases mirroring each other. Like other companies, hospitals and home health agencies must abide by FEHA and EEOC statutes, including the Civil Rights Act. We offer comprehensive representation in areas of healthcare employment like:
- Unpaid wages. Non-exempt employees working past 40 hours must be given 1.5 times their hourly rate, but often they’re not. Commissions, bonuses, and other compensatory promises fall under this category.
- Harassment. This could be sexual or being mistreated after whistleblowing. Significant problems in hospitals can erupt if varying degrees of harassment aren’t mitigated quickly.
- Retirement. Nurses, doctors, and other staff preparing for retirement shouldn’t need to fight for the benefits promised, so our Los Angeles healthcare law attorney fights to recover them.
- Corporatizing doctors. Physicians cannot be forced to ‘corporatize’ or sign contracts directly tied to hospitals. Although hospitals may pay salaries, physicians aren’t directly employed through hospitals.
- Worker’s Comp. Injured folks are entitled to Worker’s Compensation benefits, although many times, it’s an uphill battle getting these benefits paid. JML Law will help in all stages of filing.
These complaint types are inclusive; many more employment law matters are brought to JML Law. Our job is to discern facts from untruths being reported by employers and determine best-case scenarios for every case. We then fiercely negotiate or litigate matters until employees are made whole.
