Arena Hoffman LLP was founded by former big firm partners to provide a more responsive, carefully managed, and cost-effective alternative to the large-firm model. Our approach is straightforward: confront the primary issues in the matter without delay, explore all creative and practical options, provide the client with a candid assessment of the strengths and weaknesses of each course, and collaborate with the client to develop and implement a strategy for the best outcome.
Our substantial expertise covers the spectrum of labor and employment law, such as discrimination and harassment, retaliation, wages and other compensation, employee benefits, trade secrets, and unfair competition matters. We have represented employers before state and federal trial courts and appellate courts, government agencies, and arbitral forums throughout California and other states.
We also regularly counsel and guide our clients through a number of workplace problems, including terminations, layoffs, employment policies and procedures, protected leaves of absence, wage and hour issues, contracts, benefits, harassment investigations, dispute resolution, workplace training, and litigation prevention.
