About

Provided by Landegger Verano, ALC

Landegger & Verano attorneys have successfully defended employers in high-profile litigation and class action claims involving wage and hour disputes, misclassification, discrimination, harassment, and retaliation. The firm’s attorneys have extensive experience litigating complex employment law matters from pre-litigation through discovery, arbitration, trial and on appeal. The firm’s legal team regularly speaks at industry events, bar association panels, and HR conferences throughout California.

What Sets Landegger & Verano Apart?

The Firm prides itself for combining deep litigation strength with a boutique-level of client service. While some boutique firms avoid complex representative actions, the firm has cultivated a niche expertise in defending employers against class actions and PAGA claims. The firm’s class action department performs class action exposure analysis in-house without the need of utilizing outside vendors which saves clients on costs. Some of the Firm’s attorneys are fluent in Spanish, Russian, and Armenian.

Prevailed on summary judgment resulting in full case dismissals for many employers, such as Dingwell Law, APC.

Obtained complete dismissals of lawsuits and recovery of attorneys' fees for clients, such as Weiss Family Properties, LLC.
