I operate a small business in California and have just received a demand letter from opposing counsel claiming wrongful termination and missed rest- and meal-breaks. I need a licensed California attorney—or an experienced paralegal working under one—to prepare a polished, formal, and clearly assertive response on my behalf. The letter must: • State, in unequivocal terms, our denial of the termination allegations. • Explain our good-faith compliance with all applicable meal- and rest-break requirements under the California Labor Code and Wage Orders. • Request supporting documentation and additional information where the other side’s claims are vague or unsubstantiated. • Cite the specific statutes, regulations, or case law that reinforce each point, while remaining concise and professional. I will supply the original demand, our employee handbook, time-keeping records, and any other internal documents you need. In return, I expect a final, print-ready letter (Word or Google Docs) that I can place on company letterhead, plus a brief note highlighting any follow-up steps you recommend. Familiarity with California employment law and a confident, no-nonsense writing style are essential.

Hello Carrie, I will prepare a strategic, legally assertive response to the demand letter, directly defending your position on wrongful termination and rest/meal-break compliance. My approach is to construct a point-by-point rebuttal that: 1) clearly denies the allegations with factual support from your records, 2) demonstrates your adherence to California Labor Code §§ 226.7, 512, and applicable Wage Orders, citing relevant case law (e.g., Brinker), and 3) formally requests substantiating evidence from opposing counsel to challenge unsubstantiated claims. You will receive a polished, legally sound letter ready for your letterhead, along with a concise memo outlining recommended next steps—whether towards settlement or further defense. I am experienced in California employment law and will ensure the tone is professional, firm, and protective of your business's position. I can begin immediately upon receipt of the documents.

Precise information requests that expose gaps or weaknesses in unsupported claims I bring 6 years of experience supporting California employment law matters, including demand-letter responses, wage-and-hour disputes, and pre-litigation correspondence prepared for attorney review.
