Dababneh v. DOJA, Inc.
Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome. Each matter depends on its own facts and law. Amounts are gross recoveries before fees and costs.
How these results happen.
Every case at Employees First Labor Law is prepared as if it will be tried. Carriers and defense firms know which plaintiffs' lawyers actually pick juries, and that reputation is what moves settlement numbers before trial. In one recent twelve-month span the firm completed nine trials. The $2,000,000 verdict in Dababneh v. DOJA, Inc. — a gender discrimination and wrongful termination case tried in San Bernardino Superior Court in 2025 — followed the same approach: build the record early, take the depositions that matter, and be ready when the defense is not.
The firm has also secured what is believed to be the first-ever attorneys' fee award under California Labor Code section 1102.5(j), and a $2,367,850 wage-and-hour settlement in Kim v. Veyo (April 2024). Class, PAGA, and mass-tort matters are handled through LaCour Trial Lawyers.
