About Erik Christensen

Litigator and strategic advisor with over 8 years of California and D.C. business, labor and employment experience. As Principal Shareholder at Gold Summit Legal, I represent both employees and employers in high-stakes matters - including PAGA actions and wage-and-hour class claims - across trial and appellate courts (California Courts of Appeal, Ninth Circuit). A recognized Rising Star in the field of employment law (Super Lawyers 2024-2025), I excel in: ➤ Wage-and-Hour Disputes – Litigating, arbitrating, negotiating, and settling claims for unpaid wages, underpayment, rest breaks, misclassification, and waiting-time penalties. This includes handling of PAGA and class action claims, with cutting-edge briefing on issues post-Viking River and as to arbitrability of claims; ➤ Appeals & Writs – Securing critical precedent before California’s appellate courts (both district and Supreme) and in the Ninth Circuit; ➤ Preventive Counseling – Designing compliance programs, audits of human resources and payroll policies and practices, and conducting workplace investigations to mitigate liability; and ➤ Business Litigation – Handling everything from business formation to contentious business dissolution, including litigating contract disputes, alleged Ponzi schemes, fraud, and non-compete agreements. I pair rigorous legal analysis with persuasive storytelling to drive results, both in court and during client negotiations.
