Employment and Labor 35%

Workplace discrimination based on race, disability, sexual orientation, pregnancy, or religion, is a violation of your employment rights. Other employment rights violations include misclassification of employment type, retaliation for whistle-blowing or for reporting wrong doing and tampering with wages and hours. Our attorneys can protect and fight for your rights to get you the recognition and compensation you deserve.

Civil Rights 30%

Protecting the civil rights of all individuals is at the core of Potter Handy, LLP. Most of our civil rights cases are on behalf of persons with disabilities who were discriminated against on the bases of their disability. We protect your rights under the Americans with Disabilities Act -- from lack of wheelchair access provided in public or private facilities to housing accommodation violations.

Consumer Protection 20%

Consumer protection laws are designed to ensure consumers are treated fairly by businesses and protected against fraud and scams. Is a giant credit card issuer calling you non-stop? Did someone sell you a product and misrepresent its origin of production or its ingredients? Our consumer rights attorneys can help advocate for your rights, ensuring that businesses adhere to regulations and are held accountable for their actions.

Birth Injury 5%

If your child may have been injured during the birthing process it is extremely important that you have an experienced attorney evaluate your potential case immediately. The parents claim expires in 1 year from birth and the child's claim expires on their 8th birthday.

Best Employment Law Attorney

The Law Offices of Potter/Handy is hands down the best employment lawyer in San Diego. My case was complicated and required a ton of research, preparation and back and forth communication with a huge law firm that did everything possible to delay the case and make both of our lives difficult. In the... end Mark Potter was totally prepared, aggressive when I needed him to be and was always on top of things in litigating my claim. Making the decision to pursue legal action against a previous employer is scary and confusing and at times you might lose faith in the system. Mark explained everything, always took my calls and answered all of my emails. For sure I made the right decision hiring Mark!

Puja Sachdev

Employment and labor lawyer | Sep 12

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Mark is an all-around good guy! He is also well-known in the San Diego community and has developed a niche in employment law and personal injury matters as it pertains to people with disabilities. I give him my endorsement, without any hesitation."

Barry Walker

Civil rights lawyer | Aug 31

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"Mark Potter and his firm provide unmatched legal services to their clients. Mr. Potter and his attorneys stand head and shoulders above other disability rights firms, taking the fight not only to opposing counsel, but to judges unwilling to enforce important ADA provisions."
