HI, I’M MICHELE SIMON.

As a strategist and leader in the food industry for over 25 years, I have a deep understanding of the challenges that companies and individuals face. Often, an organization's success depends upon how valued and respected their employees feel. But many employees find themselves confronted by workplace conflicts and abuse. I support both parties in navigating and resolving these issues.

My goal is to facilitate work environments where organizations can reduce their legal risk while retaining valuable talent, and individuals can thrive in psychologically safe conditions.

 
 

LEGAL SERVICES

If you are suffering from abuse at work, you need an advocate in your corner who understands. Having faced similar challenges myself, I offer a holistic approach to employment law matters in California. It’s important to understand your rights.

SPEAKING

I combine legal expertise and industry insight to provide fresh perspectives on workplace challenges. My talks empower and educate audiences with actionable strategies for fostering healthier work environments and managing toxic workplace issues.
