He also helped direct the Berkeley Law Workers’ Rights Clinic, which offers free information to low-income and unemployed people about their workplace rights.

Mr. Goity recognizes that all too often, the legal system caters to the interests of powerful institutions, allowing the stories of working people to go unheard. He is committed to using the law to help workers tell their stories and achieve justice.
