Combined credentials of attorneys in our California network
Hiring an employment attorney shouldn't be a second job.
Most people contacting employment attorneys end up making 5+ calls, repeating their story over and over, and still hiring the wrong firm. We built MyWorkRights to fix that.
Searching on your own
- Call 5+ firms, repeat your story every time
- Wait days (or weeks) for callbacks
- Get declined and start the search over again
- No idea why an attorney passed on your case
- Settle for whoever picks up first
- Risk hiring an attorney who doesn't handle your type of case
With MyWorkRights
- One ~15-minute intake call — no repeating your story
- Get matched to an attorney the same business day*
- If one declines, we automatically try other firms in our network
- We act on your behalf — no chasing, no guesswork
- Compare attorneys before you commit
- Connected with California employment specialists who fit your situation
We save you hours
One ~15-minute intake call with us, then we package and forward your case to multiple firms — you don't have to repeat the same intake or chase documents around.
Vetted CA specialists
Every attorney in our network is California-licensed and focused on employment law — the right experience for your specific type of case.
We don't stop
If a firm declines, we keep matching you with others. Many declinations have nothing to do with the merits of your case.
$0 out of pocket. Period.
Every attorney in our network works on a contingency-fee basis. That means you pay nothing upfront and nothing at all unless they win or settle your case. No hourly bills, no retainers, no surprise invoices.
- No upfront cost
- No retainer required
- No hourly billing
- Pay only if they win
In plain English
"If the attorney recovers money for you, they take an agreed-upon percentage of that recovery as their fee. If they don't recover anything, you don't pay them anything."
Each attorney sets their own fee percentage and you'll review and sign their agreement before any work begins.
One intake call. Multiple attorneys. No story repeated.
We connect California employees with independent, vetted employment attorneys. After one ~15-minute intake call with our team, we package your case and keep working on your behalf until you have representation.
Tell Us Your Story (Once)
Start with a quick form to flag the issue, then we do a confidential ~15-minute intake call with you. We listen carefully, ask the right questions, and gather what we need — so you tell your story one time, not five.
We Match You to the Right Attorneys
We package your case and send it to vetted, independent California employment attorneys whose practice areas, jurisdictions, and case experience actually fit your situation.
Get Matched to an Attorney the Same Day*
Attorneys interested in representing you reach out the same day* you submit. You get to compare experience, communication style, and approach before deciding. *Same business day for submissions received during normal business hours; otherwise the next business day.
Get Connected — and We Don't Stop
When you find the right fit, you sign directly with that attorney on a contingency basis (no fee unless they win). If a firm declines for any reason — caseload, conflicts, jurisdiction — we keep matching you with others in our network until you have representation.
Got declined? That doesn't mean your case is weak.
Attorneys decline cases for many reasons — caseload, conflicts of interest, geography, or fee structure — that have nothing to do with your case's merits. We keep trying with other firms in our network so you don't have to start over.
We match for every kind of California employment case.

Compensation goes beyond just lost wages.
California has some of the strongest worker protections in the country. Depending on your situation, an experienced employment attorney can help you recover several types of damages and statutory penalties.
Lost Wages & Back Pay
Compensation for paychecks you missed because of wrongful termination, demotion, or being forced to quit — including bonuses and commissions.
Emotional Distress
Damages for the anxiety, humiliation, depression, or other emotional harm caused by what happened to you at work.
Punitive Damages
Additional damages awarded when an employer's conduct was malicious, fraudulent, or particularly egregious — designed to punish and deter.
California Statutory Penalties
California Labor Code includes strong penalties for wage theft, missed breaks, and Labor Code §226 wage statement violations — often paid on top of your wages.
Attorneys' Fees & Costs
In many California employment cases (FEHA, wage claims, retaliation), the employer is required to pay your attorney's fees and litigation costs if you win.
Reinstatement & Future Pay
In some cases, getting your job back, future lost earnings ("front pay"), or restored seniority and benefits.
The specific damages you may recover depend on your case. An independent attorney in our network can evaluate your situation and explain what may be available to you. Past results do not guarantee similar outcomes.

Google review · Oak Law Group
“Working with Oren and the Oak Law Group was an excellent experience. After facing significant challenges with my former employer and concerns about my family's well-being and my rights, Oren and his team provided exceptional support and clear guidance every step of the way. Their dedication to protecting my rights and holding my former employer accountable was evident throughout the process. Communication was consistently prompt and thorough—whether by phone, email, or text—making an otherwise stressful situation much more manageable. I highly recommend Oren and Oak Law Group to anyone who needs a knowledgeable and compassionate advocate for workplace issues. Five stars for outstanding service and results.”
