You came here because something happened that never should have. Maybe you survived a sexual assault and the people who should have protected you looked the other way. Maybe you were fired for speaking up, discriminated against, or pushed out of a job you earned. Whatever brought you here, know this: you are not alone, and what happened was not okay.

Sempervirens means "always living," named for the ancient redwoods that define our California home. Like those trees, we don't bend. We are Liz Malay and Josh Socks, and we built this firm to do one thing: fight like hell for people who've been wronged. We deliberately keep our caseload small so you never feel like a file number. You get us, directly, every step of the way.

Since launching in 2025, we've recovered over $54 million for our clients in cases involving sexual assault, disability discrimination, gender discrimination, race discrimination, and wrongful termination.
