Walter Haines<\/h4>\r\n

Founding Partner<\/h4>\r\n

I have assisted in handling 400 class action cases against some of the largest Fortune 500 corporations and more than 1800 individual cases across the State of California with client awards in excess of $400 million. I am grateful to have been listed as a Super Lawyer and I have the highest AVVO rating (10 out of 10). There is nothing better for me than assisting people in getting the compensation they deserve through the hard work of my team; seeing the results we get for our clients is the greatest reward.

We pride ourselves on receiving much of our business through referrals from satisfied clients. Your referral is UELG\u2019s proudest achievement because services recommended to others is the greatest showing of appreciation one can receive.<\/p>\r\n

Partner<\/strong><\/h4>\r\n

I provide legal representation and counseling to individuals and businesses. For the past 15 of my 29 years\u2019 practice, I am committed and proud to assist employees, through wage and hour labor law, obtain justice and recoup rightfully-earned wages, and also while doing so often change the employment policies and practices of some of the largest companies in the United States. My passion is to protect the rights of employees taken advantage of, and I fight fiercely for such victims, who have not been paid their rightfully-earned wages.<\/p>\r\n

Here are just a handful of notable results for cases in which I was involved as counsel:

When you start looking for a lawyer you may tell yourself:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

\u201cI need the BEST California labor Attorney!\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

My name is Walter Haines and I built this firm to provide real help to people like you. Over the past 40 plus years that I have been practicing law, one thing has remained true, I love helping others who have been cheated or harmed. Through the years I have moved from tax attorney, to estate lawyer and business attorney, but when I began my work with victims of employer abuse, I really found a feeling of satisfaction knowing I was helping my clients.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

For the past 15 years, UELG has focused on employment law. We have handled more than 1500 employment law cases, with astounding results. Our clients have been awarded more than $400 million, from both individual and class action cases.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

I hope you can tell by now that helping employees through my knowledge of CA Labor Law has become my passion. Not only has my firm achieved some of the best results of any California Labor Law Firm, but through our work in class actions UELG has assisted large groups in recovering wages, damages, interest and other monies owed.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Why is UELG \u201cDifferent?\u201d<\/strong><\/h4>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

I know, everyone says, \u201cwe\u2019re different.\u201d I\u2019ve heard it a thousand times, but at the end of the day I think the best judge of quality comes from those we have already helped. As our firm continues to grow, many of our new clients are referred from other happy clients. Referrals like these are the best thank you and advertising we can get. You can read more from these happy clients here.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Are you battling discrimination or not getting paid what you\u2019re owed?<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

I am Walter Haines, the owner of United Employees Law Group and an employment lawyer with a Proven Record of Success<\/a>.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Of Course, all California labor attorneys are NOT created equal!<\/strong><\/h5>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

There are very good reasons employees just like you choose UELG to help protect their rights at work<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Top Four Reasons You Should Choose United Employees Law Group<\/h4>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

WE ALL WISH WE HAD THE PERFECT JOB WITH A PERFECT BOSS. Nobody likes dealing with problems at work, but to be honest, most of us like the idea of dealing with lawyers even less. Unfortunately, in this imperfect world, you\u2019re likely to need an attorney at some point, and when it\u2019s time to make that call, we strive to make it as painless as possible.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

This is how we do that:<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

\r\n
1. We simplify the process.<\/strong> First, give us a call or email us to go over some basic information about your claims. Second, you will have a free consultation with one of our highly qualified CA Employment Attorneys. Third, we compile the documents needed to determine if you have a case and what type of case, it\u2019s that easy to get the ball rolling!<\/li>\r\n
2. We ACTUALLY call you back.<\/strong> Crazy concept, I know, but we will actually respond to your calls and emails<\/a> every step of the way. We know lawyers have a reputation for ignoring their clients until they feel like responding. NOT AT UELG. I take your questions and concerns seriously and will personally respond if you ever feel this is happening to you.<\/li>\r\n
3. Practice makes Powerful.<\/strong> Experience counts and we have over 35 yrs. practicing CA Law. Our firm has extensive knowledge of employment law including the newest CA Labor Codes, and we have handled over 1500 labor law cases.<\/li>\r\n
4. Money Talks, We get results.<\/strong> At the end of the day you want a lawyer who can win your case, right? We have advocated for clients and collected awards over $400 million<\/a>. That pretty much says it all don\u2019t you think?<\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

   The experience and tenacity of the employment attorneys of United Employees Law group can make all the difference when it comes to the results you achieve on your California Labor Law Case. While many employment attorneys focus just on discrimination or harassment, our team knows all the ins and outs of overtime claims, meal and break periods, and other payroll related claims as well. We cover them all for one very good reason: most employers willing to break one law are usually willing to break another.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

   Our California employment attorneys will look at your case from ALL angles in an effort to help you collect everything you are owed.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

   Employment Claims Come in Many Forms and \u201cKnowledge is Power\u201d<\/strong><\/h4>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

   UELG\u2019s attorneys have extensive knowledge of the countless requirements for the treatment and compensation of employees just like you, under California labor law.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

   We have used this expertise to collect awards over $400 Million<\/strong> for our clients in cases including the following areas:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

   \r\n
   • Overtime and Overtime Exemption Issues<\/li>\r\n
   • Misused Meals and Break Periods<\/li>\r\n
   • Unpaid Vacation or Sick Pay<\/li>\r\n
   • Disputed Reimbursable Expenses<\/li>\r\n
   • Workplace Discrimination<\/li>\r\n
   • Sexual Harassment<\/li>\r\n
   • Wrongful Termination<\/li>\r\n
   • Retaliation<\/li>\r\n
   • Employment Class Action: we have collected awards from companies like Cisco Systems, AT&T, First American and Yahoo. We won\u2019t shy away from any good claim.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

     A skilled California employment attorney can identify whether your employer is treating you fairly and can give you specific advice based on your particular employment situation. Our Los Angeles attorneys understand the intricacies of the ever changing California labor code, including the newest laws and the important court cases that impact California employees.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

     According to Forbes.com<\/a>, in an ever changing economy, many employers have cut costs at the expense of the worker. When this occurs, it is common for our attorneys to witness abuse of employees\u2019 wages as well as conditions at work. This is why we take a whole picture approach<\/strong>; many employees who come to us with an overtime issue really have an overtime and discrimination case or wrongful termination case.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

     Employers, whether intentionally or not, routinely fail to pay employees properly when it comes to something as simple as minimum wage pay for all hours worked, or paying for non-commuting mileage such as travel between job sites. These amounts add up quickly if left unchecked by a California labor law attorney.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

     Selecting a top California employment law firm to handle your overtime or labor law claim is a crucial decision that may impact the outcome of your potential case.
