About.

Teukolsky Law specializes in representing plaintiffs in employment disputes of all kinds.  If we can't negotiate a resolution that works for you, we will litigate aggressively to pursue the justice you deserve.  If you believe that your employer has treated you unlawfully, contact us today at (626) 522-8982 or lauren@teuklaw.com for a free consultation.

Our Process.

We typically do not charge hourly for our work.  Instead, we only get paid if we recover money for you.  If you call for a consultation, there is no charge.  If we can't help you, we will try to refer you to someone who can.

Our Commitment.

We will work with you to determine whether it makes sense to file a lawsuit, or to try to negotiate a confidential resolution without the need for a lawsuit.  Every situation is different, and each client has unique needs.  We will listen to your concerns and figure out the best approach for you.
