Kymberly LeGolvan, AWI-CH

Professional Experience

My name is Kym LeGolvan, and I’m the founding attorney of LeGolvan Law, where I exclusively focus on conducting impartial workplace investigations for California employers. I have been a licensed attorney since 2013 and have always focused my practice on labor and employment law and workplace investigations.

Prior to founding LeGolvan Law, I was a litigator in the Labor and Employment practice groups of two top Am Law 100 law firms – Sheppard, Mullin, Richter & Hampton and Gordon & Rees. I have represented employers in both state and federal court, as well as before administrative agencies. I’ve also provided advice and counsel to employers to ensure they are in compliance with all applicable labor and employment laws. This has included developing employment policies and procedures, conducting workplace trainings, and coaching management personnel and staff.

In recent years, I’ve leveraged my litigation background into working as an independent workplace investigator. I conduct prompt, thorough, and impartial workplace investigations in response to internal workplace complaints and concerns, including for allegations of discrimination, harassment, retaliation, bullying, and assault. I conduct investigations for businesses of all sizes and in all industries including technology, hospitality, retail, agriculture, food and beverage, and healthcare.

Work Style

I approach every investigation with a natural sense of empathy and professionalism. I have an authentic way of connecting with people and establishing trust. This allows witnesses to feel safe with me and speak openly about their experiences, and as a result, I can complete my investigations with all of the information I need.

Clients describe me as efficient and ethical, and as having excellent customer service. Working with me will provide you with the expertise and commitment you need to resolve your employment-related issues and inspire a healthy, happy workforce.
