Marina I. Garcia

/My focus

I focus my practice on representing clients in employment law matters, including single-plaintiff actions involving harassment, discrimination, retaliation, and wrongful termination, as well as wage and hour class and Private Attorney General Act (PAGA) representative actions.

I also advise employers on a range of employment issues and provide preventative counseling.

/Looking ahead

I am advising clients on how new amendments to California Labor Code Sections 98.6, 1102.5, and 1197.5, which create a rebuttable presumption of retaliation if an employee is disciplined or discharged within ninety days of certain protected activity, will impact California employers when disciplining or discharging employees.
