Lourdes C. Hernández-Venegas

Expert Guidance Through a Complex Workplace Investigation

I was referred to Lourdes Hernández-Venegas at Schuster | Littler during a particularly stressful time. My company was facing a sensitive internal investigation involving allegations of harassment and retaliation. Despite her relatively recent start at the firm, Ms. Hernández-Venegas demonstrated a command of employment law that was immediately reassuring. Her recognition in Labor and Employment Law by Best Lawyers was evident in her strategic approach. She meticulously guided our HR team and leadership through every step, ensuring we complied with both California and federal regulations while protecting the company's culture. Her ability to distill complex legal concepts into actionable advice was invaluable. She was always prepared, responsive, and projected a calm, professional demeanor that de-escalated the situation internally. The matter was resolved thoroughly and confidentially, avoiding litigation entirely. Her bilingual capabilities and understanding of diverse workplace dynamics, hinted at by her background in Puerto Rico, were a significant asset. I would not hesitate to recommend her for any employment-related counsel.
