Thank you Mrs. Katzenstein and everyone at Kingsley for representing me… I could not be happier with the care and attention I received. Liane's knowledge of employment laws and how they applied to me and my case exceeded that of the attorneys I interviewed at other law firms. Anyone who is facing problems with their employer would benefit from giving Kingsley a call.

Kent Davis
Mrs Szamet Is an excellent lawyer who has perfected the art of communications with her clients. I never felt the need to call in and check on my case progress, as Mrs. Szamet did this without needing any reminders. Mrs. Szamet, from the beginning, explained, in detail, the type of settlement that could be arranged, and although I believed the case was worth more millions at the time (due to my lack of knowledge), her range was right on! In the end, my final settlement amount was a bit higher than the range presented to me. I would definitely highly recommend Mrs. Szamet for employment law cases as she is extremely experienced and a proven negotiator. One final item I have to mention, Mrs. Szamet fights for the employee, not the employer, and my case involved an NBA sports team; Mrs. Szamet was not intimidated at all and went at this case with gusto and passion!

Mrs. Szamet was extremely easy to work with. She helped me understand the process with my EEOC complaint and was constantly available to answer any of my questions. I believe that in my case justice was served and I would definitely recommend Mrs. Szamet to anyone that has been mistreated at work. Thank all of you again for your help!

Employment and labor are extremely broad legal fields and a host of federal laws regulates the workplace, which includes the following:
- Longshore and Harbor Workers' Compensation Act
- Taft Hartley Act
- Migrant and Seasonal Agricultural Worker Protection Act
- Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA)
- Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA)
- Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA)
- Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)
- Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA)
In places with union organizations, state laws typically defer to federal laws. However, state and local laws usually take precedence in setting a minimum wage for workers, defining overtime pay, and wage and hours.
State laws typically provide more rigid requirements than minimum safety standards set by federal laws. Both state and federal laws protect employees against discrimination, each within their own regulatory bodies - under federal law, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) and under California law, the Fair Employment and Housing Commission (FEHC). Kingsley Szamet & Ly can help you deal with unfair employment and workplace issues.
