Moore Ruddell is a Los Angeles-based civil litigation firm that provides dynamic, high-quality counsel and representation to individual and business clients across the State of California. Founded by Bonnie Moore and Howard Ruddell after careers at premier ‘Biglaw’ firms, Moore Ruddell LLP focuses on uncompromising, rigorous advocacy that achieves clients’ goals while protecting their interests. The firm represents employees throughout California, including the greater Los Angeles area, Riverside County, Ventura County, and Orange County, in matters involving discrimination, harassment, wrongful termination, wage and hour violations, and other workplace issues.
We begin with a thorough review of your situation, explaining the legal aspects of your case and outlining your potential options for action.
Our attorneys collect documentation, interview witnesses, and analyze employer policies to build a strong foundation for your claim.
We help with filing complaints with the appropriate agencies and engage in negotiations with your employer to reach a favorable resolution.
If a fair settlement cannot be reached, we provide rigorous courtroom advocacy, taking the case through arbitration or trial to protect your rights.
If you believe you were wrongfully terminated, faced workplace discrimination, or experienced retaliation from your employer, you may have legal options. Our employment law attorneys can review your situation, explain your rights, and help you understand the next steps available under California law.
Wrongful termination occurs when an employee is fired in violation of state or federal law, such as for discriminatory reasons, retaliation for protected activity, or in breach of an employment contract or public policy.
Deadlines vary depending on the claim. For example, FEHA claims generally must be filed with the Civil Rights Department within three years, while wage claims typically have a three-year statute of limitations. It's important to consult an attorney promptly.
Depending on the claim, you may recover lost wages, lost benefits, emotional distress damages, attorneys' fees, and in some cases punitive damages designed to punish egregious employer misconduct.
No. California law prohibits employers from retaliating against employees who report unlawful conduct, file complaints, or participate in investigations. Retaliation itself is grounds for a separate legal claim.
Moore Ruddell LLP offers free consultations to discuss your case. Fee arrangements are discussed during the consultation and depend on the type of matter involved.
