    California Employment Law

    “I received introductory legal advice without having to pay any fees. They took the time to review my case, were courteous, prompt, and helpful. I needed to consult with an attorney on my employment rights and had called a few. With SD & Associates, I received a call back within 24 hours of leaving a message. Within an hour after the call I received a link to a questionnaire that I needed to fill out explaining my case. And, within two days after submitting the online questionnaire I received a call from Steve, the managing partner who had reviewed my case and had a few questions. He spent time on the phone discussing my case, stating the laws, and how it would pertain to my case, provided recommendations, and enabled me to make the right decision.“
