Littler Mendelson P.C.

Littler focuses on labor and employment law for employers. Founded in the San Francisco Bay Area in 1942, it advises businesses on workplace questions through both counseling and disputes work. Its services include benefits, workforce mobility, and employment issues associated with business transactions.

The firm's offerings also include technology-supported approaches to legal service delivery, such as CaseSmart and onDemand. Its Workplace Policy Institute addresses government relations and public policy affecting employers at international, national, and local levels. These services extend the practice beyond individual litigation matters into ongoing workplace management and policy development.

For students, Littler's concentration means that specialization can take several forms within labor and employment law. A lawyer might focus on disputes, preventive advice, benefits, mobility, or policy, while serving a similar employer client base. The firm's materials make the connection between legal requirements and the practical operation of a workforce a central part of its identity.
