As a practitioner with more than 15 years experience litigating for both employers and employees, Arnab Banerjee is a capable mediator, specializing in employment disputes — including wage and hour claims (class, PAGA, and individual), discrimination, retaliation, wrongful termination, harassment, failure to accommodate (disability and religion) and many others.
Unlike many mediators who are former judges or full-time mediators who have not practiced law in years or maybe even decades, Arnab’s position as an active litigator allows him to put himself in the shoes of the lawyers and clients on both sides, who are dealing with the day-to-day of a case and understands the strengths, weaknesses, costs and actual value of employment cases in California.

Here he led one of the firm’s litigation teams where he specialized in complex employment cases, including class actions and cases under the Private Attorney’s General Act.
