LOS ANGELES, Jan. 12, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- In a watershed development for California's working class, employee rights firm DLaw has acquired industry-leading attorney Kevin T. Barnes' law offices and staff, as Barnes is no longer taking new cases after a successful 35-year career.
Just like DLaw, Barnes' respected Los Angeles-based group has been a beacon for the Golden State's blue-collar community by providing legal advice and representation to employees throughout California, particularly in the areas of wage and hour class action litigation.
Barnes and company have successfully recovered hundreds of millions of dollars in wage and hour class action cases to protect employees and consumers throughout California over the last two-plus decades, and they'll now bring that power and expertise to DLaw.
Barnes' All-Star team consisting of lawyers Gregg Lander (Litigation Manager) and Vanessa Ruggles (Of Counsel), with staff members Cindy Rivas and Jacquelyn Luong, will now continue their careers with DLaw, as the firm continues to protect Californians from wage and hour issues, wrongful termination, discrimination, harassment, workplace retaliation and protected leave, among other violations.
DLaw Founder Emil Davtyan orchestrated and spearheaded the monumental acquisition.
