also known as Swe Legal, Law Offices of Sana Swe
Our Purpose:
I established The Law Offices of Sana Swe to provide highly competent and experienced legal representation to those involved in workplace disputes. Employment law is all we do. It's all we've done for more than 22 years. We are deeply committed to giving each of our clients' first-rate legal representation, practical legal advice, outstanding personal service, and exceptional value.
Areas of Practice:
We represent clients in employment disputes involving, wrongful termination, discrimination, sexual harassment and other forms of harassment, workplace retaliation, reasonable accommodation, wage and hour violations, family and medical leave issues, defamation, and non-competition violations. We also negotiate separation and employment and executive compensation agreements, counsel employers regarding compliance issues, train workforces, and conduct independent investigations.
We Offer Tremendous Value:
We believe our clients enjoy a unique advantage. Before establishing my own firm, I worked for, and later become a Partner in, the prestigious Employment Law Department of Paul Hastings LLP. While there, I worked with some of the finest employment attorneys in the country. My training was absolutely unparalleled, and my experience, which involved representing employers exclusively, invaluable. Subsequently, I have represented employees, as well as employers, in a wide range of employment matters. As a result, we have an inside view of the strategies and tactics that the opposing side likely will use and we can prepare in advance for them.
In sum, we have a thorough understanding of California employment law, impeccable credentials, and a proven track record of vigorously and successfully representing clients in a wide range of employment matters. This record has included advising clients, training employees, negotiating settlements and executive contracts, and representing clients in mediation, arbitration, and trial.
If you are in need of representation for an employment matter, please call our office at or send an email to

Best employment lawyer!
I cannot say enough good things about Sana Swe. She is a great lawyer and a great person. I got in touch with Sana based on a friend’s recommendation. I was caught completely off guard and needed legal help immediately. Sana was very easy to talk to on the phone. She was very patient with me...

Truly gifted, compassionate advocate with unparalleled emotional intelligence and professionalism
I owe so much to Sana, it’s hard to know where to begin. Like so many of her clients, I was in an awful position with my employer. Desperate, I called her office at 7 AM and had no idea my life was about to change when she called me back an hour later. From that first call, I knew she was the perfect...

Highest Praise for a Great Person and Lawyer
I have been blessed to have Sana Swe as an attorney. I am currently involved in a two person claim with a government employer, and Sana has been a rock star. She is treats my co-plaintiff and I with the upmost respect and is beyond ethical in her legal tactics. If you are looking for an attorney w...

Would have been lost without Sana's help.
Just wanted to say my family would of been lost without her help with our legal disputes. My family never went through any real legal fight before, let alone this intense level of a fight. It was our first and I thought for sure we were in for long war with real heavy battles that will literally kil...
"Sana is a smart, professional advocate whose prior experience as a defense attorney makes her particularly effective at resolving cases."
"I endorse this lawyer without reservation or qualification. Ms. Swe is one of the most accomplished employment lawyers and employment litigators in Southern California. She is equally adroit at representing either management or executives and other employees in all facets of counseling and litigation. She has a wealth of experience, is sage, savvy and tenacious, and brings a rare combination of academic and practical perspectives to the practice of law. In short, whether in the context of negotiation or litigation, Ms. Swe is a formidable opponent who zealously and effectively advances her clients’ interests while simultaneously engendering respect and credibility with a level of professionalism and civility that, sadly, is becoming increasingly rare in this line of work."
"Sana is a smart, ethical, and dedicated lawyer who keeps her eye on her client's goals. We worked as opposing counsel on a complex matter in 2010 and by working together in a professional manner, we were able to reach a resolution that was fair to all parties. Sana is an excellent choice for any employment matter!"
"Sana and I were on opposing sides of a case. I found her to always be very professional and courteous (something not always found in this field). She represented her client very effectively and I have no doubt that she would work vigorously for all her clients."
