I absolutely recommend David Sohn

If someone I know needs legal advice in an employment situation in California, I would definitely recommend David Sohn. In my opinion, he would be able to help someone on either side of the table – employer or employee. As an employee who was being harassed by a former employer, in a legal sense, n...ot physical, I reached out to David Sohn for legal help. He came through for me with all the legal support I could have asked for. He was responsive when I had questions. He was knowledgeable in every area without hesitation. His responses were also timely. I never felt ignored.

Professional, hard working and creative

I contacted David based on a recommendation from a trusted source for an initial consultation related to a employment litigation case. David spent a considerable amount of time with me on the phone and gave me valuable insights into the case that I had not even thought of, walking me through step by ...step the next stage of the process and given employment law background information. David was professional, highly aware of the current regulations with regards to U.S. and state employment law and was just an all round great guy to partner with. Cannot recommend more. I cannot recommend him more

Attorney with Results

I was intimidated to fight my former employer for wrongful termination, gender & disability discrimination. I was so thankful I was referred to David Sohn who genuinely cares about his clients and had the patience to answer all of my questions. He took the time to explain up front what I would be fa...cing and what options I had. David informed me of my rights and explained the law to my full understanding where I was able to provide the evidence to help my case. We worked as a team and we were successful in reaching a very favorable settlement. I highly recommend David Sohn for Employment Law. He will not disappoint!

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
