Employee and Employer Representation

The primary focus of our practice is employment law and claims involving problems in the workplace, such as:

• Discrimination
• Failure to provide reasonable accommodation (disability)
• Sexual harassment
• Retaliation
• Hostile work environment
• Wrongful termination
• Severance negotiation

Our firm's lawyers have broad experience representing both employees and employers. This background allows us a unique perspective into the advantages and disadvantages of certain options and enables us to develop a litigation strategy that is focused, realistic and cost-effective.

Dedicated Litigation Practice

Avila & Shaddow also represents injured people and families of fatal accident victims in personal injury and wrongful death litigation. We know that insurance companies regularly dismiss valid claims, and we are ready to fight for you. Our goal in injury cases is to get our clients the maximum compensation.

Our business attorneys help businesses with their commercial transactions and business litigation. We offer result-oriented and cost-effective legal counsel to help resolve your business dispute and get you back to business.

We have a reputation for accepting only worthy cases, for exhaustively preparing every case for trial, and for successfully litigating our clients' claims. Our reputation will send an early message to the opposing counsel that we will skillfully litigate your case, and if a reasonable settlement is not achieved, we will confidently take your case to trial.
