About the Firm

Spiegelman Law PC was founded in 2022 on the core belief that workers come first. Clients’ voices should be elevated by their attorneys, not diminished. Grounded in a feminist, queer, anti-racist and class-conscious framework, we guide clients through a biased legal system to pursue justice. Although the system is stacked against Californian workers, they do have significant rights enshrined in the law - but they need a steadfast attorney to achieve equitable outcomes. Spiegelman Law PC is here to do just that.

Spiegelman Law PC is an employee’s rights law firm located in Los Angeles, California. The firm represents clients throughout Southern California (and occasionally Northern California). We practice worker-focused employment rights litigation, negotiations, and advocacy. With contingency-based payment plans, we only get paid if our clients do. This levels the playing field against employers who often have the resources to simply out-spend the workers they have harmed.

Samson Spiegelman, plaintiff’s employment attorney, launched his Los Angeles-based law firm in 2022 after several years practicing with the most highly regarded attorneys on both the plaintiffs’ and defense sides.

Bearing in mind these diverse perspectives, Samson has the ability to grasp the whole picture of your case, your needs, and who you are as a person - all of which are essential to effective representation.
