How Ashley Can Help
Standing up for California workers.
If you’ve been mistreated at work, you have rights and stronger protections than most employees realize. Here’s where Davenport Law fights for you.
Severance Review
Never sign a severance agreement blind. The company’s lawyers drafted it, so you should have a lawyer review yours. Deadlines are short, so call early.
Learn more →Discrimination
Race, religion, national origin, disability, age (40+), sex, sexual orientation, pregnancy and more. We pursue back pay, front pay, lost benefits and punitive damages.
Learn more →Harassment
Sexual harassment, quid pro quo demands, and hostile work environments. No one should have to endure abuse to keep their job.
Learn more →Retaliation & Whistleblower
Fired, demoted, or punished for reporting wrongdoing or asserting your rights? Retaliation for protected activity is illegal, and we hold employers accountable.
Learn more →Wrongful Termination
Terminated, or pushed out, for an unlawful reason such as discrimination, retaliation, or whistleblowing? Find out whether your firing crossed the legal line.
Learn more →Wage & Hour Claims
Unpaid overtime, missed meal and rest breaks, off-the-clock work, misclassification, unreimbursed expenses. Individual claims and class actions across California.

Ashley Davenport
Ashley has spent 20 years standing up for employees, not corporations . She started in a small plaintiff’s employment firm, trial by fire, and opened Davenport Law in 2018. Courts throughout Southern California have appointed her class counsel representing thousands of workers , and she secured a $6.9 million whistleblower settlement on behalf of the government.
Early in her career, opposing counsel told her a case would never settle for more than a small amount, and that she should ask more seasoned attorneys why it had no value. A year later, a San Bernardino jury awarded her client $5,000,000 . Today her referrals come from former clients, and even from former defense counsel, which says everything about how she handles a case.
- Employee-side only , she represents workers, never the companies they’re up against.
- SuperLawyers honoree , and Rising Star, Labor & Employment.
- Best of LA Legal , Plaintiff Employment Litigation, 2026 LA Magazine.
- Personal, one-on-one service , you work directly with Ashley, start to finish.
