Robin Workman’s practice focuses almost exclusively on representing employees in wage and hour class actions. These actions include claims for unpaid overtime, off the clock work, failure to provide meal and rest periods, and failure to reimburse employment-related expenses, including mileage and uniform expenses. Robin has prosecuted class actions throughout California and the United States on behalf of tens of thousands of employees and is one of the few trial lawyers in California who has tried a class action.

In 2014, Robin tried an exemption class action to decision in the Sacramento County Superior Court, obtaining an $8.3 million judgment for a class of 122 claims adjusters in York Claims Service Wage and Hour Cases, Sacramento County Superior Court Judicial Council Coordination Proceeding No. 4560 (order filed May 27, 2015). Given her extensive experience in this area, Robin also regularly argues cases before the California Courts of Appeal and the Ninth Circuit, obtaining written opinions in cases such as Reyes v.
