Sherman Oaks Employment Lawyer

Employment Lawyers on Ventura Boulevard

We only represent employees. The people who work around our office include restaurant and retail workers along Ventura Boulevard and at the Galleria, staff at local medical offices and the hospital, people in the entertainment business, and office employees in the towers around the 405. Call ahead and we’ll set up a time to meet at the office, or we can do it by phone or video.

Local Rules

Sherman Oaks is part of the City of Los Angeles, so the Los Angeles minimum wage applies: $18.42 an hour since July 1, 2026. The Labor Commissioner’s nearest office is a few miles north in Van Nuys. Common pay problems here include missed meal and rest breaks, overtime miscalculated on alternative schedules, and salaried employees misclassified as exempt.

Just Got Fired?

Get your final paycheck, which is due on your last day if you were let go. Write down what happened while you remember it, with dates and names. Don’t sign anything you don’t understand, especially a severance agreement with a release. Our guide on what to do after being fired has the full checklist. Then call us.
