Established in 2023, O’Hagan Meyer’s Sacramento, California office strengthens the firm’s statewide labor and employment practice, with a particular focus on California-specific compliance and litigation challenges. Located in California’s capital, the office is led by experienced employment litigators and supported by a dedicated team of associates representing employers in state and federal courts and before administrative agencies throughout California.

The Sacramento office concentrates on labor and employment litigation and counseling, defending employers in single-plaintiff, class, collective, and representative matters, including wage and hour class actions and Private Attorneys General Act (PAGA) claims. Attorneys in the office represent public and private employers across a wide range of industries and bring substantial experience navigating California’s complex wage-and-hour framework, classification issues, background-check compliance, and labor-management and union-related matters. In addition to litigation, the team provides preventive counseling through wage-and-hour audits, exemption reviews, policy and handbook development, workplace investigations, training, and strategic advice designed to reduce litigation exposure.
The Sacramento office also maintains close awareness of evolving developments in California employment law. Attorneys contribute to thought leadership through articles and commentary on employment-related issues and remain attentive to regulatory and legislative trends affecting California employers. From its Sacramento location, the office supports clients statewide and collaborates with colleagues across the firm on matters requiring coordinated strategy. With its focused employment practice and deep familiarity with California’s regulatory environment, the Sacramento office delivers California-centric representation tailored to employers operating in one of the nation’s most demanding legal landscapes.
