Fernando Estrada has filed a significant lawsuit against a prominent technology company, alleging widespread labor violations that could have serious implications for the firm. On November 5, 2025, Estrada submitted a complaint to the Superior Court of California in Santa Clara County against Skyworks Solutions, Inc., citing numerous breaches of the California Labor Code under the Private Attorneys General Act (PAGA).
The case revolves around allegations that Skyworks Solutions, Inc., a Delaware corporation with operations in California, systematically violated various labor laws affecting its current and former employees. Estrada claims that the company failed to pay minimum and overtime wages properly, did not provide legally mandated meal and rest breaks, issued inaccurate wage statements, and neglected to reimburse necessary business expenses. The plaintiff asserts these practices were part of a broader pattern of illegal employment activities by Skyworks Solutions.
Estrada’s legal team argues that these violations are not isolated incidents but rather indicative of systemic issues within the company’s employment practices. “Defendants jointly and severally acted intentionally and with deliberate indifference,” states the complaint, highlighting how employees were allegedly denied fair compensation for their work hours. The complaint also accuses Skyworks Solutions of failing to pay all due wages during employment and upon termination, further exacerbating the grievances.
The lawsuit is being pursued under PAGA, which allows aggrieved employees to file lawsuits on behalf of themselves and other affected workers for labor code violations. Estrada seeks civil penalties from Skyworks Solutions for these alleged infractions. The penalties sought include $100 per employee per pay period for initial violations and $200 for subsequent ones under California Labor Code § 2699. Additional penalties are sought under various sections of the Labor Code related to wage payment failures and inadequate record-keeping.
In his prayer for relief, Estrada requests civil penalties as prescribed by statute for each violation committed by Skyworks Solutions. He also seeks reimbursement for attorney fees and costs associated with bringing this action forward. This lawsuit underscores significant challenges facing employers regarding compliance with state labor laws.
Representing Fernando Estrada in this legal battle is Justice Law Corporation based in Pasadena, California. The attorneys handling the case include Douglas Han, Shunt Tatavos-Gharajeh, and Michael Jones. The case is presided over by Judge M. Arechiga under Case ID 25CV479381.
