PASADENA, California — Workers Rights Law Firm, APC is proud to announce that founder and managing attorney Michael Carlin has been selected for recognition by Lawyers of Distinction in the area of Employment and Labor Law.

This honor reflects Michael’s ongoing commitment to representing California workers in complex workplace disputes involving wrongful termination, workplace harassment, discrimination, retaliation, and unpaid wages and wage-and-hour violations.

Insider Defense Insight, Exclusively for California Employees

Michael founded Workers Rights Law Firm, APC after departing a prominent global defense practice where he defended Fortune 500 employers in high-stakes workplace litigation. Today, he utilizes that institutional defense knowledge exclusively to advocate for individual employees.

“When a worker’s rights are violated, the financial and emotional stakes are immense. Having spent years inside major defense litigation, I know how corporate employers, their defense teams, and insurance adjusters evaluate claims. That perspective allows us to anticipate employer tactics and build aggressive strategies to hold corporations accountable.” – Michael Carlin

Throughout his career as a California employment attorney, Michael has litigated matters across both state and federal courts, representing clients in individual lawsuits, class actions, Private Attorneys General Act (PAGA) enforcement actions, and appellate proceedings.
