Jackson & Associates

Specialties

We are committed to providing excellent legal advice and representation to all of our clients. We represent individuals in mediations, arbitrations and trials on various types of cases. We emphasize representation of employees under the Fair Employment and Housing Act [“FEHA”] and Title VII, as well as consumers under Unruh Civil Rights Act, arising out of sexual harassment or discrimination based on race, disability, age, sexual orientation, gender, and use of FMLA or CFRA Leave.

We view the circumstances of each client that we represent to determine the most favorable course of action. It is important to all of us at Jackson & Associates to represent our clients in a timely and efficient manner, so as not to burden or distress the client with an unnecessarily long or expensive trial. We are committed to providing superior representation and professional service, no matter the type or size of the case.

Meet the Business Owner

Samuel J.

Business Owner

Samuel G. Jackson, Jr. has tried well over 100 cases, mostly to juries in California — state and federal courts. He has defended a major automobile manufacturer on a defective seat belt claim. In that case, the plaintiff claimed damages for severe bodily injuries, including a closed head trauma and neuro-​psychological damage. The jury returned a defense verdict.

Other of our activities involve giving seminars to lawyers and the business community on the subjects of workplace harassment and discrimination. Thus, over the past several years, we have conducted seminars for the Real Estate Section of the State Bar of California, UCLA Extension and the California Minority Counsel Program. All of these programs were approved for Continuing Legal Education credit.
