About Carole
Carole Vigne represents clients in employment law matters including wrongful termination, discrimination, wage and hour violations, leave of absence claims, disability rights, and class action employment matters.
Prior to joining Rukin Hyland Doria & Tindall, Carole was a Skadden Fellow with the Legal Aid Society - Employment Law Center, where she conducted her own workers' rights clinic, providing legal advice, brief services, and representation to San Francisco's low wage, limited-English-proficient, Latino immigrant workers. In addition, Carole worked on cases with the Employment Law Center's National Origin, Immigration, and Language Rights Program, through which she gained experience in all stages of employment litigation, including trial in both state and federal courts.
Carole is a graduate of Brown University, where she received her B.A. degree with honors in the area of International Relations, and of University of California at Berkeley School of Law (Boalt Hall), where she earned her J.D. While attending law school, Carole completed legal internships at the Center for Human Rights and Constitutional Law, the ACLU's Immigrants' Rights Project, the Employment Law Center, the Lawyers' Committee for Civil Rights, and the East Bay Community Law Center. Carole also participated in the California Asylum Representation Clinic as a representative, clinic coordinator, and legal mentor, served as Symposium Editor and Articles Editor for the Berkeley La Raza Law Journal, and volunteered at Centro Legal de la Raza through the Berkeley La Raza Las Students' Association during law school.
Carole is the winner of the 2007 Edward L. Dubroff Legal Writing Competition, sponsored by the American Immigration Law Foundation, for her article "No Relief: An Analysis of the Illegal Immigration Relief Act and Other Local Anti-Immigrant Ordinances," which was published in the Immigration & Nationality Law Handbook, 2007-2008. Carole also received the San Francisco La Raza Lawyers Association Public Interest Law Bar Review Scholarship in 2007, the Herma Hill Kay/Orrick Fellowship in 2005, and the La Raza East Bay Lawyers' Association Scholarship, also in 2005.
Carole is admitted to the State Bar of California, the bars of various federal district courts, and the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals. Carole is also a lecturer and volunteer attorney at the Employment Law Center's Workers' Rights Clinic. Carole is fluent in Spanish and Portuguese and conversant in French.
