Working for a public employer in Agoura Hills
The Las Virgenes Unified School District is Agoura Hills's largest employer, with Agoura High, Indian Hills High, Lindero Canyon Middle and several elementary schools in the city, and the City of Agoura Hills and Los Angeles County agencies also employ local workers. Claims against public employers can require a government claim before a lawsuit and often have shorter deadlines, so get advice promptly.
Where Agoura Hills employment claims are filed
