San Francisco Attorney Ellen Mendelson
Employment Law for Government Workers
Employment law involves disputes that affect our very foundation, our livelihood. Parties often know each other well and emotions can run high. My practice focuses on assisting my clients through employment-related disputes in a compassionate, respectful manner.
I am Ellen Mendelson, an employment law attorney, who represents state, federal, and local government employees, as well as private employees in employment matters.
My practice addresses:
Please contact me if you are an employee who needs legal advice in an employment matter.
Are you an employee who is being unfairly treated or disciplined?
Are you a state or municipal employee who is being disciplined for your job performance? I can represent you at your Skelly hearing.
Are you a bus driver, clerk, or library employee who has suffered a non-work related injury? Contact me to discuss the possibility of disability retirement.
Are you a county social worker involved in an employment dispute? I can advocate to help you keep your position or negotiate a fair severance agreement.
I have 18 years of experience representing local, state, and federal employees. I welcome the opportunity to help you, too.
In all of my cases, my goal is to achieve the best possible outcome for you based on the facts, circumstances, available options, and law relevant to your situation.
I have appeared before the state Office of Administrative Hearings, the Merit System Protection board (MSPB), the California Public Employee Relations Board, and administrative boards for public and private retirement systems. I have litigated cases through the trial process in state and federal courts.
I am also a referral attorney for the San Francisco Bar Association’s Lawyer Referral Service.
From my San Francisco office, I represent clients throughout California, particularly residents of San Mateo, Marin, Alameda, Contra Costa, Sonoma, and San Joaquin Counties, and the San Francisco Bay and Sacramento areas.
