Amanda Mazin

For nearly a decade, Ms. Mazin sat on the other side of the table – defending California employers against claims of wrongful termination, discrimination, harassment, and wage violations. That experience taught her exactly how companies build their defenses, manage risk, and prepare for litigation long before an employee ever calls a lawyer.  Today, Ms. Mazin uses the same insider knowledge for people who need it most: the employees.

After almost a decade of representing multiple Fortune 500 companies in the healthcare, technology, restaurant, banking, and other spaces, Ms. Mazin kept encountering the same pattern – employees who had been genuinely wronged, but who walked into a legal system stacked with information they did not have and strategies they could not anticipate. She knows the strategies employers may use to minimize misconduct, justify unlawful decisions, or pressure employees into accepting less than they deserve. This insight brings a rare, dual-perspective advantage and allows Ms. Mazin to anticipate defenses, identify weaknesses in an employer’s position, and build stronger cases for employees.

When Ms. Mazin evaluates a case, she does not guess at the employer’s likely defense – she has built that defense before, for other companies, many times over. That means fewer surprises, sharper strategy, and negotiations grounded in real experience rather than assumption.

Clients often come to Ms. Mazin anxious, uncertain whether what happened to them “counts” and worried about retaliation or being outmatched. Ms. Mazin understands that taking legal action against an employer can feel overwhelming. A job often represents much more than a paycheck – it provides stability, professional identity, and security for an employee’s family. When an employer abuses its authority or violates the law, employees deserve an advocate who will listen carefully, explain their options clearly, and stand firmly on their behalf. Ms. Mazin approaches every case with the same instinct: listen first, explain plainly and thoroughly, and never let a client feel like they are just another file. Ms. Mazin takes a strategic and individualized approach to each matter, focusing on the evidence, the client’s goals, and the best path toward a meaningful resolution.

Amanda at CA Employment was fantastic to work with. She took the time to thoroughly investigate my matter before moving forward, which ultimately made me feel confident that my case was being handled properly. Once I signed on, the process was smooth, professional, and well organized. My settlement exceeded my expectations, and the entire case resolved in less than a year.

In addition to her employment law practice, Ms. Mazin represents individuals who have been injured due to someone else’s negligence. She brings the same client-first, no-detail-overlooked approach to these cases – helping people navigate medical treatment, insurance companies, and the claims process while they focus on recovering.

If you believe your employer crossed a line, Amanda Mazin has seen that line drawn from both sides – and knows exactly how to hold employers accountable for crossing it.
