A:
For a civil service commission appeal hearing in California, you need an attorney with experience in employment law and administrative law. These areas of practice involve understanding the intricacies of public employment and the rules governing administrative hearings.
An employment attorney will be familiar with the procedures and standards applied by civil service commissions.
