VanDermyden Block
specializes in assisting public and private
employers throughout California with the legal practicalities of running
the people side of the business. Seasoned attorneys
Sue Ann VanDermyden and Teri Block have handled
nearly every kind of employment lawsuit, and,
consequently, understand firsthand the importance of
early intervention to prevent workplace problems
from developing into full blown litigation.
In keeping with
our focus on early intervention and prevention,
VanDermyden Block partners with employers and their
lawyers to investigate complaints of workplace
discrimination, harassment, retaliation, threats of
violence, assault, embezzlement, wage and hour
violations, and other forms of alleged misconduct.
The Firm, having conducted hundreds of
investigations collectively, has handled nearly
every type of investigation, ranging from
straightforward claims to complex, politically
sensitive and highly publicized matters.
The Firm also
offers advice and counsel on these issues, as well
as a full menu of workplace training seminars on
preventing sexual harassment, discrimination, and
retaliation, understanding disability and family
medical leave requirements, complying with wage and
hour laws, conducting effective investigations, and
other workplace concerns.
But when
litigation cannot be avoided – the case has been
tried and is headed for appeal – VanDermyden Block
also offers sound expertise in all aspects of civil
appellate advocacy, including designating the
record, preparing appellate briefs, and conducting
oral argument.
