Kathy H. Gao

Knowledgeable and effective counsel for a workplace investigation

I engaged Kathy Gao at GBG LLP when my company faced a complex internal investigation involving allegations of workplace misconduct. While her firm is based in San Francisco, Kathy's deep understanding of California employment law, honed from her practice in Los Angeles, was immediately evident. She guided our management team through the entire sensitive process with a clear strategy, ensuring we complied with all legal obligations while protecting the company's interests. Her recognition in Employment Law - Management by Best Lawyers is well-deserved; she provided practical, business-focused advice that went beyond just legal theory. The one area where we experienced slight delays was in receiving written follow-ups to our calls, as her caseload seemed quite heavy. However, when we did connect, her attention to detail and ability to distill complex regulations into actionable steps were exceptional. For a relatively newer attorney, her poise and substantive knowledge from Loyola Marymount Law School were impressive. I would confidently recommend her for employment matters requiring a diligent and strategic approach.
