Litigation defense and employment law counseling for California employers
Withrow Employment Law, a Professional Corporation, advises and represents clients on employment law matters, with an emphasis on practical and efficient legal strategies tailored to each client’s circumstances. Our goal is to help employers address workplace legal issues so they can focus on their core business operations. Legal outcomes depend on the facts and circumstances of each matter.
Guiding clients through major challenges
Compliance with California’s labor laws can be challenging, particularly for smaller employers. We provide representation and legal advice to clients on employment-related matters and work with them to evaluate pending or potential claims based on the specific facts and applicable law.
We also advise clients on compliance with the regulations and obligations imposed on California employers. We are not looking for repeat litigation clients. When disputes arise, we assist clients in exploring options for resolution and in addressing compliance considerations to help manage future legal risk.

Our company has been using Laura Withrow for almost 2 years to help us navigate the HR and employment laws that are so overwhelming for small businesses. Her help has been immeasurable from writing sales contracts to how to handle disgruntled employees and all aspects of the difficult Covid employer requirements and the rest. I know I can count on her to come through for us and I highly recommend her!
Laura’s expertise, knowledge and responsiveness is a breath of fresh air. Laura has navigated me through what on my end can be confusing legal matters/questions and explains the topics in clear and easy to understand answers. Her added humor is always a delight on a subject matter few find funny. I feel confident and truly supported with the support of Laura. I couldn’t do it without her.
I’ve had the pleasure of working with Laura on legal issues for over 15 years. She has assisted me with employment law matters including threatened litigation, administrative claims, and guidance on compliance issues. She is always the first call I make when in need of legal advice. Not only is she the best of the best in the area of employment law, she has a wonderful sense of humor that creates levity in situations which are often stressful. She is honest to her core and will tell you if she’s not the right person to take on your legal situation. Not only does that bring an tremendous amount of value, but she’ll help you find the right person for your needs. If she does take on your case, you can rest assured that you are in the very best hands. Sleep tight, Laura’s got your back.
