VALERIE GONZALEZ, ESQ.
OWNER & PRINCIPAL ATTORNEY
SMALL BUSINESS OWNER
MOM
I am a small business owner, a native Californian, and chances are I am a lot like you. I created my business as a single mom with the goals of creating a life and a legacy for my daughter. Like most entrepreneurs, I no longer wanted to work constrained by other’s rules and instead, created my own.
As a native Californian, I know there might be easier parts of the country to operate a business. But, because this is my home, and because of the endless possibilities California has to offer, I am invested into my business and my community. I know it is more than possible to thrive as a California business and I am not intimidated by the economy or the hiring climate or any other limiting beliefs, because our business demands it and our clients deserve it.
Prior to becoming an Attorney, I had a long career as a Corporate Human Resources Professional in hotels, retail, and corporate headquarters. Now, I exclusively protect small business owners while leveraging my prior experience, to provide practical, proactive legal strategies to avoid devastating lawsuits.
To me, family is everything and in my free time, you can find me at the soccer field cheering on my nephews, teaching Human Resources Compliance at Trinity Law School, cheering on LA sports teams, volunteering with Christian Legal Aid, and driving my daughter Camila to all of her (many!) activities.
Don’t wait until it’s too late to protect your business. Schedule a strategy session with me today!
