Meet Your Employment Attorneys
When you hire Schauman & Hubbins, you know exactly who is handling your matter—and you work directly with them throughout the process.
Employment Defense Matters We Handle
Many employers reach out when a workplace issue becomes formal—but early guidance can help reduce risk and avoid unnecessary escalation.
We focus on two core areas of employment defense, providing clear strategy and direct attorney involvement at every stage.
We represent businesses responding to employee claims involving wrongful termination, discrimination, harassment, and retaliation. Our approach focuses on evaluating risk early, developing a clear response strategy, and managing the process from initial claim through resolution.
We advise and defend employers in wage and hour matters, including overtime disputes, employee classification, meal and rest break issues, and compliance concerns. We work to resolve disputes efficiently while protecting your business.
When to Speak With an Employment Defense Attorney
Timing matters when responding to a workplace issue. Many employers reach out once a claim is filed, but earlier guidance can help reduce exposure and improve outcomes.
You may want to speak with an attorney if:
- You’ve received an employee complaint or demand letter
- A current or former employee has raised legal concerns
- You’re facing a wage and hour issue or investigation
- A dispute is affecting operations or internal teams
- You need guidance on how to respond to a developing issue
Speaking with a Walnut Creek employment defense lawyer early can help you evaluate risk and take the right next steps.
