The EmployersLawyer Model 

We provide every client with a full suite of resources designed to keep your organization informed, compliant, and out of the courtroom.

Held every Tuesday and Thursday, Office Hours serve as a critical resource for managing workplace issues as they arise. Each session includes a 20-minute discussion led by our attorneys focused on a timely employment law topic, followed by 30 minutes of interactive group Q&A. After the group session, Joe and Jen address individual questions in a confidential, attorney-client privileged setting for Premium and Signature clients.

Premium and Signature clients work directly with experienced EmployersLawyer attorneys on your most challenging workplace issues. No hourly billing. No retainers. Just practical, California-focused legal advice at a predictable and affordable cost. We offer a smarter way to engage counsel, built for ongoing support, informed decision-making, and prevention that holds up. EmployersLawyer allows California organizations to obtain legal advice without the cost barriers of traditional law firms.

Our on-demand, AI-supported technology platform serves as a trusted digital legal assistant for HR professionals, delivering real-time answers to your California workplace law questions. Available 24/7, ELLA™ guides users to clear, practical answers and provides helpful related resources for deeper understanding.
