Practice Areas: Employment & Labor
Kyle Todd has developed a reputation as a social justice lawyer, fighting for oppressed workers throughout California. His goal in his practice has always been simple: to obtain stellar results for his clients, to compensate them for workplace injustices, and to do so in a way that maintains a connection between them and the firm, creating an attorney-client “justice team” along the way.. An activist from an early age, Mr. Todd has long used his talents to advocate for the oppressed. In 2009, he enrolled at UCLA School of Law, where he received specializations from the Critical Race Theory and Public Interest Law programs. Shortly after graduating, he struck out on his own and has since made a name for himself as a tireless advocate, unafraid to take on powerful defendants in order to get justice for his clients.. Mr. Todd has now represented hundreds of individuals, obtaining millions in verdicts and settlements for those who have suffered workplace injustices. By refusing to accept low-ball offers from powerful defendants and their insurance companies, Mr. Todd has made it clear: he will make these entities pay their fair dues for violating his client’s rights. At the same time, Mr. Todd’s firm has forged close connections with the individuals who have given them the honor as serving as their attorneys. The firm listens to their trauma, they hear their grief, and they put these clients first in their fight to get them fairly compensated.. As a practitioner, Mr. Todd is, above all, an exceptional trial lawyer, and has been recognized as such by his legal peers. SuperLawyers has put him on its list several years in a row, and gives Mr. Todd 10/10 in its employment attorney rankings. However, more than accolades, Mr. Todd has always done this work for the satisfaction of knowing that his work sits on the right side of history, for in the words of Martin Luther King, Jr.:. “The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice.”

I represent employees who have lost their jobs for unlawful reasons or were forced to quit because of harassment or unsafe working conditions. My practice area is employment law, including all types of wrongful termination, discrimination and harassment, retaliation, and wage and hour violations.. I began my career as a field chemist, working for a small hazardous waste disposal consulting firm in the San Francisco Bay Area. As I traveled all over California overseeing the packaging and shipment of hazardous waste, I witnessed many workers exposed daily to chemicals and other hazards with little to no controls. This inspired me to focus my career on worker safety and health, and work to protect everyone's right to a safe workplace.. Over time, I served as a lay or expert witness in cases involving employee or public exposure to hazardous chemicals, asbestos, or mold. In every case, I remarked how helpful it could be if the attorneys understood more about the core concepts of industrial safety and hygiene. I thought California workers might benefit from an attorney who understands the rules of safety and health on a practitioner level. So I set out to become that professional.. Later, as my legal career gained momentum, I decided that protecting workers from harm goes far beyond worker safety and health. It also involves protecting people from workplace discrimination, harassment, retaliation, wage theft, and labor code violations. And it involves taking action whenever a fired employee could potentially have been the victim of a workplace injury, or suffered an illness or disability based on chemical exposure or other hazards in the workplace.. And that's where I found my true calling – which is to protect the legal rights of employees and to fight for compensation when those rights are violated.
