At Razavi Law Group, we are committed to protecting the rights of employees who have the courage to speak up against illegal or unethical practices in the workplace. California law offers strong protections for whistleblowers—but unfortunately, many employees still face retaliation in the form of termination, demotion, harassment, or blacklisting after reporting wrongdoing.
