Shaun Setareh founded Setareh Law Group in Beverly Hills, California, in 1999. He is committed to advocating for employees facing workplace injustices. His practice addresses issues such as wrongful termination, sexual harassment and wage theft. With a wealth of experience, he fights tirelessly for workers’ rights and ensures corporations are held accountable for their actions. Proudly serving clients throughout California, he provides dedicated legal support to those who have been wronged in their workplaces.
Graduating from the University of California, Los Angeles, with honors, Mr. Setareh went on to receive his Juris Doctor from Loyola Law School. Upon earning his licensure to practice law in California in 1999, he founded his own firm with a mission to provide accessible, aggressive representation to individuals who are taking on powerful companies.
Recognizing that legal challenges threaten more than just assets, Mr. Setareh approaches every case as a vital turning point. He balances aggressive representation in the courtroom with a tailored, empathetic strategy behind closed doors. Rather than applying generic solutions, he carefully unpacks the personal dynamics at play, ensuring his clients feel understood, protected and fully empowered to reclaim their stability, uphold their dignity and secure a clear path forward.
His fluency in English, Hebrew and Spanish allows Mr. Setareh to bridge critical cultural and linguistic gaps, making clear communication a cornerstone of his practice. He ensures clients fully comprehend every legal option without translation barriers, fostering complete transparency and trust. By speaking directly with opposing counsel and key stakeholders across multiple languages, he prevents misunderstandings, accelerates negotiations and advocates effectively to protect each client’s livelihood, dignity and future.
