Protecting Employment & Worker Rights
Being illegally terminated, retaliated against, harassed, or not adequately compensated are very serious events for most people, especially when they don’t fully understand their rights. Our employee rights practice group provides two main services. First, we represent clients with claims relating to unlawful discrimination, harassment, and retaliation. Second, we represent clients for claims relating to unpaid wages, which include for example unpaid bonuses, equity, commissions, and overtime.
Our attorneys have collectively represented over 1,000 clients for employment and independent contractor disputes, making us one of the most experienced law firms in the nation for these types of services.

What Our Employment Law Clients Think
We are proud to have represented thousands of clients with sensitive employment law and work rights matters. We believe we are one of the top employment law firms. Don’t take our word for it.
I am so appreciative of the efficient experience I had working with Will Cantrell and Michael Alvarez. Without hesitation they were able to answer all of my questions and guide me on all concerns relating to my severance from my prior employer. I would absolutely refer them to anyone who asked me for an employment attorney in the future.
Samantha Barker
I whole-heartedly recommend Will Cantrell and his firm. Will provided me with excellent legal advice and guidance throughout the process. He is timely with his responses and never looked to do extra work that wasn’t necessary at the time. I always felt he had my back and had my best interests at heart. Will is very professional and an exceptional employment lawyer.
Brad Surminsky
I highly recommend Attorney Will Cantrell and his legal team for anyone that encounters a serious business dispute or employment law issue. True professionals who love what they do.

Rob Brehl
I’ve had great experiences with Will and his team. Will is always thorough in responding to my questions and is very attentive to detail. I was very satisfied with the last legal advice and information that he provided to me and feel confident as a new business owner seeking his expertise. He is very knowledgable about employment and business law and is always a great resource to have. Will and his team are highly recommended.

Have Questions? We Have Answers.
What is the Cost of a Wrongful Termination or Unpaid Wage Case Review?
Nothing. We do not charge potential clients anything to conduct a case assessment. You have nothing to lose by contacting us to find out whether you have a case. Contact us today at 1-877-858-6868 or at coordinator@caklegal.com.
What is the Cost of a Demand Letter or Filing a Lawsuit?
It depends. We generally work on pure contingency for cases involving claims of unlawful discrimination, harassment, or retaliation. That means we only get paid when you get paid.
We sometimes charge an upfront fee for certain claims involving unpaid wages, but it depends on several factors, including the type of unpaid wages (e.g., unpaid overtime, bonuses, or commissions) and the amount of unpaid wages at stake. In some instances, clients prefer to pay us an hourly rate or flat fee instead of contingency. We work to tailor fee arrangements to meet the needs of the client and the circumstances of the case. At no cost, you can speak with one of our employment attorneys for more information.What is the Process?
Once you contact us, an Intake Specialist will help you gather necessary information and documents. One of our employment attorneys will help determine whether you may have a case that we’d consider accepting. If we accept your case, we will move quickly to help you resolve your immediate legal concerns, maximum any recovery, and protect your rights.
What are the Benefits of Hiring an Employment Law Attorney?
Workplace disputes and terminations are often nothing short of a life event. Employment law is a very niche, complex area of law. Regardless of who you hire, they should specialize in employment law, as opposed to an attorney who is a generalist or is new to employment law.
We have a dedicated practice group of employment attorneys who provide comprehensive employment law guidance and litigation services. Our attorneys do not dabble – they provide employment law services, often in high stakes situations, daily.
What is Your Industry Specific Experience?
We’ve represented clients in virtually every industry imaginable, including but not limited to healthcare, legal services, information technology, financial services, marketing, hospitality, solar, construction, recruiting/staffing, insurance, home services, education, and more. We’ve represented well over 1,000 clients for employment and work rights matters. We’ve built a strong reputation representing c-suite, professionals, and partners. But we are also proud to represent everyday people.
