From our offices in Los Angeles, the attorneys of Hennig Kramer Ruiz & Singh, LLP represent public entity employees working for state and local governmental agencies in California in a range of workplace disputes and situations related to discrimination and harassment. Litigation against public entity employers presents a variety of unique challenges and procedural prerequisites to bringing legal action.
Hennig Kramer Ruiz & Singh, LLP has taken action on behalf of public employees that has created a track record of favorable outcomes.
In a single-plaintiff disability failure to accommodate/discrimination claim, our firm obtained a judgment of $1.8 million in 2012 against the State of California’s Department of Transportation (Caltrans) after an employee’s accommodations were repeatedly denied.
Our firm represented Mr. Brake, who had refused to engage in retaliation against a subordinate and was subsequently denied a promotion while being pressured by his supervisors to engage in retaliation. Following an extensive jury trial, Mr. Brake prevailed on all causes of action.
Our firm represented an individual government employee who made numerous reports of potential conflicts of interest and alleged that his supervisor was directing contracts and business to a specific private company that did business with the government. After over a year of litigation, the matter was settled for $1.15 million.
