Congratulations to Pearl Law Firm associate Leonard H. Sansanowicz, who recovered more than $155,000 in wages for an individual who worked as a repairman in a jewelry shop and was treated as an independent contractor. Mr. Sansanowicz conducted a two-day bench trial before Hon. Luis Lavin in Los Angeles Superior Court, Central District, Department 13. Mr. Sansanowicz now will move to recover our client's attorney fees.
Mr. Sansanowicz focuses his practice on wage and hour litigation, class actions, and unfair competition. Mr. Sansanowicz earned his law degree at Loyola Law School, where he served as a Senior Articles Editor of the Loyola Law Review of Los Angeles, was a member of the nationally ranked Byrne Trial Advocacy competition team, and served as a board member of the Jewish Students Law Association, La Raza, and the Public Interest Law Foundation.
