Maurice Mandel II

Greetings and Welcome! My practice has focused on EMPLOYMENT LAW cases in Federal and California Courts for 40+ years. I am a trial attorney, and have handled employment and housing cases involving race, age, gender, and physical disability harassment and discrimination and cases involving sexual harassment and discrimination. I also handle WAGE AND HOUR matters involving the wrongful theft of wages, including class actions. I have represented both the employee and employer although I predominately represent the employee. Sometimes, I accept cases on a negotiated contingent fee. I associate with specialists in Worker's Compensation matters, as well. But I do more than just try cases, I am a professional ARBITRATOR and MEDIATOR and I have also served our Courts as a Court appointed mediator for many different types of cases. Housing discrimination, contract, personal injury and more. COUNSEL, I AM AVAILABLE TO SERVE AS A MEDIATOR FOR YOUR CASE, you really want me as your mediator. Not only will you get a highly trained and dedicated Mediator to help you resolve your case, you will get ADR services at a great rate. One of my interests is speaking other languages, because you learn about other cultures that way. I have received training in many of the subtle differences in cultures that we deal with in day to day contacts. If you need someone to be sensitive to the needs of another culture, I either have experience or understanding. I have consistently received the highest peer rating from Martindale-Hubble, an “AV” rating meaning that I had reached the highest of professional excellence and am recognized for the highest levels of skill and integrity. I look forward to hearing from YOU about YOUR situation and whether you need an advocate, an arbitrator or a mediator to help you resolve your difficulties. (It is an old photo, I have grey hair now!)
