Best Employment Rights Attorney's Office in L.A. County

I hired Shegerian & Associates in June of 2014 regarding employment rights violations that occurred with my employer (Fortune 100 Company) that caused me severe emotional distress. I hired this firm specifically due to their outstanding case history (95% success rate) and the fact that 2 of their pre...vious clients have been awarded two of Los Angeles County’s largest employment verdicts in the history of LA employment law. This is who I wanted by my side to fight back against a very well known corporation for their illegal actions which included discrimination based on my medical condition and ADA violations. As of today, I can say that my case has been resolved. I worked with Cortney Shegerian specifically on my case and she was always very kind and always professional. I believe that she fought for me to the best of her abilities and I received the best possible outcome for my case. Considering that my case was resolved in less than a year, I am very happy that I chose to hire Shegerian & Associates. I would absolutely refer ANYONE with employment rights issues to their office!

A truly skilled and talented young Attorney.

I recommend Cortney Shegerian “Cortney worked very hard on my case and I was extremely happy with the outcome. Cortney had great people skills and was able to clearly share the legal process. I found her to be very focused, organized and quite talented for such a young and new attorney. Additionally..., I felt she was responsive and helpful with anything I needed and any questions I had throughout the most difficult parts of the process. Thanks to the hard work and excellent representation of the entire Shegerian and Associates team, my story was told and I feel justice prevailed.”

Mediation & Settlement meeting

Cortney represented me in a case against a corporation that discriminated against my handicap. During the Mediation & Settlement agreement, Cortney was a force to be reckoned with. She was focused, driven and tenacious. I recommend Cortney Simone Shegerian and her law firm, Shegerian & Associates,... to all employees who were wrongfully terminated. Justice will be served through this law firm. Thank you!
