Patriot Day, observed on September 11, is profoundly significant in our nation's history. This day serves as a solemn reminder of the tragic events of September 11, 2001, when our country faced one of its darkest moments. It's a day to honor the memory of the lives lost, and the heroism displayed, but it also signifies the enduring spirit of unity and resilience that defines America. On this Patriot Day, we remember the first responders, the courageous individuals who put their lives on the line to save others, and the countless acts of kindness and solidarity that emerged from the ashes of tragedy. It is a day that underscores the American people's strength and unwavering commitment to freedom and justice. Let Patriot Day remind us that we can overcome even the most challenging circumstances when we stand together and support one another. Today, we commemorate the past, acknowledge our shared resilience, and look forward to a future where these principles continue to guide our nation's journey. #PatriotDay #UnitedWeStand #Remember911

Today, on Indigenous People's Day, we join the nation in recognizing and celebrating the rich cultures, traditions, and contributions of Native American and Indigenous communities. This day, observed on the second Monday in October, stands as a powerful symbol of unity and respect for the first inhabitants of this land. Indigenous People's Day originated as an alternative to Columbus Day, shedding light on the devastating impact colonization had on Indigenous peoples while honoring their enduring strength and heritage. It's a day to commemorate their invaluable contributions to our society, from agriculture and medicine to art and language. This Indigenous People's Day, let's take the opportunity to learn, reflect, and appreciate the resilience of Native Americans and Indigenous people. By fostering understanding and respect, we contribute to a more harmonious and inclusive world. 🌍🌄 #IndigenousPeoplesDay #CulturalHeritage #InclusivityMatters

🏳️🌈 Celebrating LGBTQ+ History Month! 🏳️🌈 Every October, LGBTQ+ History Month shines a light on the rich history and remarkable achievements of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer individuals. This meaningful observance was initiated by Rodney Wilson, a dedicated history teacher at a Missouri high school, back in 1994. The significance of LGBTQ+ History Month was formally recognized the following year when it was added to the list of commemorative months, thanks to a resolution put forth by the General Assembly of the National Education Association. The choice of October was particularly fitting as it already featured National Coming Out Day on October 11, a pivotal day in the LGBTQ+ calendar. October also holds historical significance as it marks the anniversary of the first march for gay rights in Washington, which took place on October 14, 1979. At our firm, we've had the privilege of fiercely advocating for countless LGBTQ+ employees who have been subjected to discrimination and harassment in the workplace. California Government Code Section 12940 makes it unlawful for employers to discriminate against or harass employees based on their "sex, gender, gender identity, gender expression, [or] sexual orientation." We are truly grateful to serve as advocates for those who have faced unequal treatment simply because of their LGBTQ+ identity. This LGBTQ+ History Month, let’s celebrate the progress and achievements that have been made to protect the LGBTQ+ community and continue to strive for a more inclusive and equal society. 🏳️🌈✨ #LGBTQHistoryMonth #EqualityForAll #ProudAdvocates

Our Managing Shareholder, Chantal McCoy Payton, was quoted in Law360's article about our recently filed class action case against Billion Dollar Baby Entertainment LLC. In August, Payton Employment Law, PC filed a lawsuit against Billion Dollar Baby Entertainment, LLC after its production team refused to pay our client, Ms. Rebekka Lien, proper minimum and overtime wages, threatened to withhold pay entirely, and substantially restricted meal and restroom breaks during the production of rapper DaBaby's “Couple Cubes of Ice” music video. The proposed class action was filed on behalf of Lien and other unpaid or underpaid dancers, performers, models, actors, actresses, and background talent that were filmed in, participated in, or worked on any of the record label’s music videos in the State of California. Beyond restricting communication and movement, DaBaby’s production team exerted complete domination over music video’s cast’s time, schedule, and their ability to eat, drink, rest, use the restroom, and communicate with the outside world during the period of employment, the suit says. Despite an utter lack of independence, Billion Dollar Baby misclassified performers as independent contractors in order to skirt the California Labor Code, which mandates employers’ strict adhesion to meal and rest break rules and minimum wage and overtime compensation requirements for employees.
