    Unemployment Insurance

Our Focus

We provide legal advice and representation before the California Unemployment Insurance Appeals Board to people facing denials of unemployment benefits, allegations of false statements, overpayments by the Employment Development Department, and other challenges. We ensure that our clients’ voices are heard at administrative agencies, in courts, and in the legislature, and we help shape unemployment insurance law.
