Ask business owners about their toughest challenges and at the top of the list is managing employees.

The attorneys of CDF Labor Law counsel employers on that sole challenge — maintaining productive and rewarding workplaces that keep companies competitive. 

Our niche is California labor and employment law, in its entirety, and we’re one of the few boutique firms with a California-wide presence.  We represent, advise and counsel national and regional employers with California employees and workforces, as well as California-based startups, midsize ventures, and privately and publicly held companies and Fortune 500 corporations.

Big Law, Big Case Background in a Boutique: CDF was founded in 1994 in Orange County by several labor and employment attorneys practicing at leading AmLaw 100 firms.

The goals of the founding partners were, and continue to be, helping clients derive value from CDF attorneys’ big law experience, creating an entrepreneurial context for legal counsel, and nurturing client-attorney relationships fueled by flexibility, efficiency, responsiveness and creativity.

Being a California employer demands being prepared for the unexpected and often the unprecedented. CDF attorneys counsel employers as a tight-knit group of dedicated, decisive, diverse and dynamic professionals in tune with labor and employment concerns across the state.
