Unfortunately two of these German doors have damaged jambs. The one on the right does. We built our office in Oxnard.

Maybe it helps us understand labor better. #door jams #work lawyer Ventura ## Helping Employees Since 1993 ## Ventura, California, work lawyer lawyer The Employment Lawyers Group exists to make labor better. Our goal is to provide life changing results for our clients. While guarantees are not predictions of future case achievements, some of our recent case results have changes the lives of our clients. Take for instance a case in which a sales person over 60 was fired. In the years since his termination he did not find a better job. We ended up receiving more than two and a half years of salary in the case. Another example is a man who spent his career working up to manager in a national retail corporation, but was fired when he needed to go out on medical. That individual received almost four years of lost wages. There have also been numerous [sexual harassment](https://venturaemploymentlawyer.com/sexual-harassment/) victims who ended up having sufficient funds to obtain advanced degrees, or college degrees while not working for years when their settlements were 6-10 what they would have earned in a year.
