Levon Shant Yepremian represents employees in labor and employment disputes involving wage-and-hour violations, workplace discrimination, harassment, retaliation, class actions, and PAGA matters. His practice focuses heavily on employment cases that require both individual advocacy and the ability to navigate broader workplace issues affecting large groups of employees.
Levon approaches employment litigation with a strong belief that effective representation begins with communication. Many of his clients are navigating a legal dispute for the first time, often after experiencing abrupt changes to their financial stability, professional identity and daily lives. He emphasizes keeping clients informed throughout every stage of the process, helping them understand the legal strategy behind a case and what to realistically expect as litigation progresses. Clients consistently value his responsiveness, direct communication style, and honest assessment surrounding their cases.
His practice includes both individual employment disputes and complex representative actions involving large numbers of employees. Levon understands that wage-and-hour and PAGA litigation frequently involves more than a single workplace disagreement. These cases often require investigating company-wide practices, analyzing extensive records and advocating for hundreds or even thousands of workers whose claims could potentially go unheard.
One matter that reflects his approach involved negotiating a settlement on behalf of an employee against a former employer who later failed to pay the agreed-upon amount. Rather than allowing the matter to stall, Levon and the firm returned to court, secured a judgment against the employer and the employer’s assets, and pursued a bank levy to recover the client’s settlement funds. For Levon, the case reflects his belief that representation does not end once an agreement is reached if the client has still not received the owed results.
Levon earned his undergraduate degree from the University of California, Irvine before attending Loyola Law School in downtown Los Angeles. He is licensed to practice law in the State of California and before the United States District Court for the Central District of California.
