Jonathan, the managing attorney here, was beyond courteous while initially going over my list of questions on incidents where my labour law rights may have been compromised by my former employer. He clearly does this specialized investigating for a living; because he knew which parts of my recollections of incidents to have me recall my memories HARD in order to assist parts of my case vital to the law that I would not have mentioned on my own.
I've had other lawyers who were practically ghosts. In this case, you've found Jonathan's firm where I had the feeling of having professional counsel every step of the way without having to seek out updates or layman explanation for proceedings handled by his office.
I highly suggest contacting his office if you're in the Pomona, Claremont, Upland, La Verne areas.

My wife and I experienced a discrimination case at our previous job and honestly found Jonathan through his reviews and recommendations online and we went into this kind of case blind not knowing our rights or what we may be looking at and Jonathan truly went above and beyond. He exceeded our expect ions and shared so much knowledge and educated on many employment rules and rights as well as assisted us in our case from beginning to end. Truly amazing

If your looking for a truly attentive and dedicated attorney who will not only help you from beginning to end to understand every step of the way as well as make you extremely comfortable in all situations LOOK NOOOOOO FURTHER.! Truly amazing
Jonathan did a great job with my case. He was knowledgeable and a kind gentleman. He works pretty quickly in my opinion - there seems to be a lot of paperwork but he responded questions pretty quickly, which I appreciate. I didn't feel like I was talking to a lawyer, but a friend. I definitely recommend him to anyone.

I needed some help with a contract and I found Jonathan LaCour online. He responded quickly to my email and we discussed my situation. He was upfront and direct with his communication with me, which I like a lot. Jonathan also made me feel very comfortable when talking to him. I would highly recommend him to anyone.

I contacted this company to get advice about an employment contract I had regrettably signed. I spoke with Mr. LaCour who demonstrated extensive knowledge on employment laws and contracts. He was incredibly friendly to talk with and genuinely cared about helping me which I am grateful for. If you're stuck in a bind and need legal advice about employment contracts or labor laws, I highly recommend contacting Mr. LaCour at this law firm. They will definitely be able to help you out and provide honest, caring, professional advice.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Jonathan and Jessica, and I can honestly say that working with them was easy and hassle free. Jonathan listened to me, treated me with respect, and worked quickly and efficiently. He got me the result I wanted and I would recommend him to my family and friends in a heartbeat. Simply put, I cannot say enough great things about Jonathan, Jessica and their firm. I couldn't have been more grateful for their help. If you have a lawsuit or simply need an attorney for some advice, go to this firm! You won't be disappointed!

I spoke to several Employment Lawyers regarding work related concerns and by far Jonathan LaCour is the best! Searching for the right lawyer was an ordeal and what a relief, I am happy that I chose him. He has a keen understanding of things and uses an intelligent and systematic approach that works. I have received continued support from Jonathan and his team along with Jessica who is fantastic, I highly recommend!

After calling numerous other attorneys and doing some consultation I came across Jonathan who was a lifesaver. During our consultation he really listened to my complaints about my ex-employer. He told me he would request information from my ex-employer to determine if I had a case. He never promised me anything but I appreciated him looking into possibly having a case where as all the other attorneys rejected me. About 2 weeks later he called me after obtaining the information and he said I truly was wronged by the employer. From day one Jonathan and his staff(Jessica and others) have done a SUPERB job with my case. Anytime I emailed and/or called there was instant communication. There were twist and turns during the filing of the lawsuit, during mediation, and payment of the settlement. During those twist and turns I have been very pleased with the type of service they have provided me. Thier communication is one of a kind. They definitely put me at ease throughout the process and I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Jonathan Lacour and his firm to help you in your case.

I was injured at work and needed a workers' comp. attorney. I called them and they answered right away, and I was directed to their workers' comp. team. I signed with their law firm the next day. These guys work fast and do not sit on cases. They were able to settle my case in three months. Very happy with their service. Thank you so much!

Jonathan was extraordinarily helpful in helping to contextualize the issue I have with my employer. He responded quickly to my inquiry, and has cemented himself as the clear choice for my case moving forward. I will post another review when the process is complete, but for now, I'm extremely satisfied by my interactions with Jonathan and would recommend him.

I reached out to Jonathan through yelp for guidance on a situation I was dealing with. I received a reply in less than 10 minutes. Jonathan later contacted me through the phone where he explained everything I needed to know. I would say their customer service is first class. He helped me out big time! I would highly recommend this law firm.

This is the Best Law firm out there! I have looked for a law firm on labor laws to help me believe me I’ve talked to a lot of them. Jonathan LaCour is the one I chose to represent me as my lawyer. If I had to do it all over again I would still choose him because I don’t believe there’s a lawyer out there that would do a better job than this law firm. Jonathan and his group are the best you could ever find and they will help you achieve what you want. They will do everything they can to help you win your case because they take pride in what they do and they are the best at what they do. They helped me win my case when other law firm’s told me there was no way I could win a case like this. So I chose employees first Labor law and I WON the case that’s how I know they are the best at what they do!

Employees First Labor Law has been the right choice to represent me in my case. Jonathan and his team have exceeded expectations. They have been have been honest, responsive, transparent, supportive and compassionate. Labor cases can be emotional and very personal. His ability to think strategically and focused on the outcome has helped me keep perspective, remain patient and trust the process. If you need a labor attorney, you cannot afford to make the wrong choice. Employees First Labor Law and Jonathan LeCour have given me peace of mind and allowed me to focus on my life while he ensures that I will get the best possible result that law allows. You cannot really ask for anything more.

Jonathan is very knowledgeable and helpful. I sent him a quick message and he tried calling me at work but I didn't have reception. Most law places wouldn't even call me. But Jonathan called me 2-3 times to make sure I received the help I needed. I needed his service about unemployment insurance and he was the right person to contact. He has years of experience in this field however he doesn't actively practice it now. Nevertheless, he was committed in helping us. We were in a very difficult situation and he offered to give us a free consultation. During the consultation, he provided endless amount of information and I couldn't believe I wasn't paying for this information. My wife and I can't thank him enough. During times of intense stress, I was very thankful I found Jonathan.

Jonathan and his team sincerely care about your case. More than that, their top concern is your well-being during the uncharted process of seeking justice. While sometimes overlooked, this simple piece of the journey is paramount as it relates to the overall result of the case. Feeling heard and understood are key to setting yourself up for the best possible outcome. This firm leaves no stone unturned and works overtime to ensure that you are both aware and familiar with the daunting process of litigation. I could not have made it through this scary, uncharted territory of employment law without them!

I had reached out to a number of attorneys trying to get help in resolving my situation. No one was willing to tackle the intricacies of my case until I came across Jonathan and his team. Jonathan patiently and persistently pursued my case through multiple challenges and pitfalls. All the while, communicating with me as a partner who was as invested in the successful outcome of the case as I was. He and his team both care and are willing to fight for you. It’s a rare combination and one which provides comfort in what is a difficult and painful process. Give him a call and get him on your team, you’ll be glad you did!

I would like to thank Jonathan and staff for the great experience we encountered while handling the case of a very good friend. I have dealt with many law firms but Mr. Jonathan is by far the most polite and professional lawyer I've ever seen. At the beginning of the case, my friend and I had many questions, Mr. Jonathan took the time to explain to us every little detail about the case and possible outcomes truthfully. Several times Mr. Jonathan returned our calls late at night when we had questions. As expected, he responded to every email and phone call we had questions and concerns about the case. We were informed and always on the loop on the progress of the case until the case was closed. In addition, the settlement went very smooth with no issues. Thank you once again on doing a great job. I would highly recommend Jonathan LaCour and his friendly staff, which by the way are bilingual.

In a hectic world that seems to get busier each and everyday, it was my families turn to have one of those unfortunate events requiring legal assistance. At first, I felt that I could navigate the world of workers compensation, but it quickly drained my mental capacity, not to mention emotional agility.
Overwhelmed, I contacted a few attorneys but Jonathan’s straightforward approach and explanation gave a feeling of confidence.
Within a few hours, we hired him and his team was on it. Prompt feedback and replies, regardless of the time or weekends, went a long way. His team took the time to not only worry about the legal matter but also listen to our concerns.
Through the process, his team carried a professional approach and could break down and explain legal terms in simple words that we could understand.
Would definitely recommend Jonathan and his team to anyone.

Jonathan and his team are AMAZING. We dealt with ridiculously long delays due to the backlog in the Orange County Courts, once we finally had a hearing scheduled things thankfully moved quickly. Jonathan was professional, diligent and fought for me to get the highest possible settlement for my unpaid wage claim with my previous employer.
He was always honest with me, provided me with all my options and allowed me to make the decision that was best for me and my family. He made the time to call me and explain each stage, what was going on, what we were waiting for, what (if anything) needed to be done etc... Anytime I left a message or emailed Jonathan with a question I always received a prompt response from either Jonathan directly or his legal assistant, Jessica.
I would not hesitate to contact Employees First Labor Law if the need arises again in the future.

I consulted with Mr. LaCour and although he did not take on my case, I HAD to write this review. The world needs more people like Mr. LaCour. You can tell he really cares and goes the extra mile to help everyone, even people that he can't take on the case. I called and even though he couldn't take my case he gave me three options for other law firms and the labor commissioner. He could hung right up on me. Thank you for your assistance. I see why you have such good reviews.

My former employer was refusing to pay my bonus and overtime that I was entitled to after leaving the company. Initially I tried to be civil and work it out on my own but every conversation went nowhere and I became hopeless. I started looking for legal help and called Employees First Labor Law and everything changed ! Once Jonathan got involved they must have felt the pressure because they wrote me a check shortly thereafter. Mina and the rest of the staff are true professionals and know exactly what they are doing. I’m so grateful to have found them. Definitely recommend!

For a year I worked at a restaurant, unaware that they were not paying me for breaks. When I found out, I searched Yelp for workplace attorneys that handle these types of situations. The first two calls I made were answered by the front desk and forwarded to the managing attorney's voicemail. Then I called Employees First Labor Law and spoke directly with Jonathan. Let me tell you, he was a breath of fresh air! From the initial consultation through the settlement (and yes, he was able to win all the money I was owed), he was extremely responsive, attentive and explained things clearly. I never felt like I was bothering him with my endless questions and I felt like I could call him at any time and he'd be there for me. My case was not a big one but he made me feel like I was his only client. 10 stars!

I was referred by a friend because I wasn't getting paid for overtime, even though as a nurse I work extra hours all the time. Jonathan and Mina were super helpful and knowledgeable. They took the time to explain the law to me. Jonathan was available 24/7. I am so happy with the choice. If you need help for an employment matter, you're in good hands. They take the time to explain the whole process every step of the way.

We were looking for someone who could help us understand our contract with work. We were a bit unsure what to look for or what we could negotiate. I found Jonathan online and were real happy with the service and how everything turned out. He was totally in tune with our needs and was very communicative. We were able to do everything over a couple of days and for a really reasonable cost. Definitely recommend. He's our go-to employment lawyer now for sure.

This was my second time contacting Jonathans office and let me tell you there is no need to go anywhere else for an employment lawyer. They treat you like a person rather than a dollar sign and really care about you and whatever is going on. My experience with them was such a pleasant one from start to finish. Truly in a class of their own. The reviews are right. Ten stars!

This is the second time I've used Jonathan for a labor law related issue and at this point there is no need to go anywhere else. Jonathan is thorough and explains things in an uncomplicated and succinct manner. He communicates very well and is always available. He has helped my family navigate two issues now at this point and I plan on referring friends and family his way.
