JLG Lawyers is a California employment law firm founded in 2009 by Michael Jaurigue on a simple belief: everyone deserves great lawyers who care.
Our firm is dedicated to representing employees and other individuals, including executives, partners, professionals, and talent, not employers, in all industries, across all professions, and at all employment levels. As advocates for workplace fairness, our passion and our profession is to help advance the goals of employees and protect their rights against injustices in the workplace. Our attorneys advise and represent clients in matters involving former employers, current employers, and potential future employers and partnerships. We also represent groups of employees collectively, as well as executive teams in transition.
Managing Partner Michael Jaurigue, a U.S. Marine Corps veteran and UC Berkeley Law graduate, spent years representing Fortune 100 companies at a leading defense firm before turning his focus to representing employees. That experience gives our clients a strategic advantage typically reserved for the other side. He has negotiated more than $800 million in settlements and has been recognized as a Rising Star and Super Lawyer from 2019 through 2026.
CEO Alexandra Tieu brings a complementary perspective from her background in real estate and technology, having built and sold companies including Keller Williams and Movoto. Recognized by The Recorder and Law.com as an innovator in technology and AI, she has shaped JLG to operate with the transparency and efficiency of a modern business.
Our lawyers are recognized as among the most qualified and highly skilled in the field of employment law in California, and the firm was recently featured in LA Magazine's Best of L.A. 2026 Legal.
