A formidable advocate who delivered justice for our workplace discrimination case

When I faced wrongful termination and a hostile work environment at my former tech company, I was overwhelmed. Hiring Michael Levin-Gesundheit at Lieff Cabraser was the best decision I could have made. His dual recognition in both Employee and Management-side Labor and Employment Law gave him a strategic edge; he understood the defense's playbook before they even made a move. Michael meticulously built our case, explaining complex legal strategies with clarity and patience. His 12 years of experience, honed at a firm renowned for plaintiff-side class actions, were evident in his confident and thorough approach. The result was a highly favorable settlement that not only provided significant compensation but also included meaningful policy changes at the company. Michael is more than just a brilliant Stanford-educated lawyer; he is a compassionate professional who truly fought for me. I cannot recommend him highly enough for anyone navigating complex employment disputes in San Francisco.
