Partners

Our clients ask us who to call. We only name people we have worked with.

People415 does the HR for California companies of 10 to 75 employees. That work runs into legal questions and insurance questions every week, and we do not do either. So we keep a short list of professionals we trust, and we are always looking to make it better.

Our firm has partnered with People415 on various clients from service firms to tech companies and hospitality groups. My clients feel comfortable calling them with any question relevant to daily human resources management.

Two kinds of partner we work with

Same idea in both directions: the client gets the right professional, and nobody pays anybody for the introduction.

Employment attorneys

You handle the law. We handle the HR.

Audits, handbooks, training and documentation for your clients, under your lead. And the clients our audits turn up who need counsel.

How it works with attorneys →

Insurance brokers

You cover the risk. We shrink it.

The HR fixes that mean fewer employment claims on the book you already have. And the employers we work with who need coverage.

How we think about referrals

Three rules, because a referral is our reputation on loan.

We have worked with them

Nobody goes on the list from a directory or a pitch. We refer people whose work we have seen on a real client.

No fees, no exclusivity

Nobody pays for an introduction and nobody is obligated to make one. The only currency is whether the client was well served.

We stay in our lane

We do HR. We do not give legal advice and we do not sell insurance. When a question crosses that line, we say so and make the call.

Who you would be working with

Becky runs a team of HR professionals for California employers of 10 to 75 people who have outgrown doing it themselves.

Thirty minutes to see if our clients overlap.

That is the whole ask. If they do, we start referring to each other. If they do not, you have lost thirty minutes and met someone useful.
