Gail Solo has been on the front lines passionately and honestly advocating equal rights in the workplace for 35 years. Her extensive litigation, trial, and negotiation skills have earned her the distinction of having been selected as one of Southern California's Super Lawyers in employment for 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011, among many other awards for her distinguished community service. She is relentless and tenacious in the pursuit of worthy cases.

Since graduating with honors from UCLA Law School in 1975, Ms. Solo has worked almost exclusively in the area of employment discrimination law. Her experience in starting her career in a respected insurance defense firm, and handling its plaintiffs' cases as Of Counsel, has given her a strong foundation in the realities of this complex practice from both sides. In addition to successfully representing wronged employees, she has represented banks, insurance companies, school districts, and large and small employers. This balance has empowered her with the advantage of knowing what constitutes a winning case, and how to win it.

Ms. Solo's Beverly Hills practice is now limited to representing employees wronged by workplace injustice. She has achieved great success, and benefits to the community at large, in prosecuting these legal wrongs:

• Discrimination based on sex, race, national origin, cancer, disability, sexual orientation and other forms of prohibited discrimination.
• Retaliation for protesting discrimination.
• Public policy violations, including California Labor Code violations, whistle-blowing, elder abuse, and violence in the workplace.
• Wage and hour litigation, denial of owed pay.
• Negotiation of severance packages, and review of employment contracts.
• Litigation of employment cases involving defamation, libel, breach of employment contract, and sexual assault.

With in excess of $59 million in settlements and verdicts to her credit, Ms. Solo takes pride in every superb partnering relationship she forms with her honest and devoted clients. She promises them candor and hard work at all times, and she delivers. She expects and requires an equal commitment from her clients, whom she carefully selects, to assure results that change their lives immeasurably.
