Karaian Legal Group represents employees in wrongful termination, discrimination, unpaid wages, and retaliation matters — from the first difficult conversation with HR to a courtroom, if that's what it takes.
We represent employees exclusively — never employers. That focus shapes every strategy decision we make.
Fired for an illegal reason — retaliation, discrimination, or in violation of public policy. We investigate the real reason behind the decision, not the one in your file.
Claims involving race, gender, age, disability, pregnancy, or protected leave. We build the timeline your employer hoped you'd never document.
Hostile work environment, unwelcome conduct, or a complaint that went nowhere. We hold employers accountable for what they let happen on their watch.
Unpaid overtime, missed meal and rest breaks, misclassification as exempt or independent contractor. Unpaid wages compound — so does our approach.
Demoted, sidelined, or pushed out after reporting misconduct. Retaliation is rarely announced — we know how to prove it happened anyway.
Before you sign anything, know what it's worth and what it costs you. We review and renegotiate severance and release agreements line by line.
No case is simple, but the process that gets you answers should be.
We listen first. You'll leave the first conversation understanding whether you have a claim, what it might be worth, and what happens next — no cost, no obligation.
Emails, pay records, witness accounts, HR files. We gather the evidence your employer assumed you'd never think to ask for.
Most matters resolve before trial — but only when the other side knows you're prepared to go the distance if they don't take you seriously.
If a fair resolution isn't on the table, we're ready to litigate. You decide the risk tolerance; we handle the execution either way.
Karaian Legal Group was founded on a simple premise: employees rarely have the same resources as the companies they work for. We exist to close that gap — with the same rigor a large firm would bring to defending an employer, aimed the other direction.
Based in Burbank, we work closely with clients across the entertainment, healthcare, hospitality, and tech sectors throughout Los Angeles County, and we take a limited number of cases at a time so every client gets direct access to the attorney handling their matter.
I didn't know what my options were until I sat down with them. They explained everything in plain terms and never made me feel like a case number.
The severance offer I was about to sign looked fine until they walked me through it. What we ended up with was completely different.
They were responsive from day one and honest about the timeline. I always knew where things stood.
Consultations are free and confidential. Most employment claims have a filing deadline, so the sooner we talk, the more options you have.
