Employees work hard for their money. They deserve to be paid fairly in accordance with the law. Early resolution is the key, through settlement negotiations if possible, but by decisive and resolute litigation where it is not. For many years, San Diego labor and employment attorneys Karin L. Backstrom and S. Ward Heinrichs have been successful in the highly complex area of labor and employment law litigation.

Their firm, Backstrom & Heinrichs, has accumulated years of expertise in all aspects of state and federal labor law  in San Diego County and throughout Southern California. They offer assistance with many issues including:

• Wage and Hour Laws
• Missed Meal & Break Periods
• Exempt/Non-Exempt Misclassification 
• Employment Discrimination
• Sexual Harassment
• Wrongful Termination
• Whistleblowers
• Class Action

Employment lawyers can show businesses how to reduce their risk of employment litigation and how to comply with state and local laws. Employment lawyers can also help protect workers when their rights are being violated.

In contrast with several large impersonal firms, where clients are identified by file numbers, Karin Backstrom and Ward Heinrichs hold the conviction that that their clients are akin to family and accordingly deserve the same attention, care and consideration. As such, the Firm's success is defined by its client's success in effectively and economically resolving claims.

"We have the nimbleness of a small firm, and the ability to handle class actions, like many larger firms do. We strive to treat each case individually and care for each client's concerns and needs. You have suffered the harm. We are here to help."
