The firm recovered over $1 million on behalf of its general contractor client against the school district and its labor compliance program. In this first of its kind lawsuit, the firm asserted civil rights and other claims against the labor compliance program which was withholding contract funds far in excess of that justified by the California Prevailing Wage Law. The case settled, and in addition to the large recovery, the firm’s client was paid its attorneys’ fees.
