Under the guise of pursuing justice, John P. Kristensen targets companies with lawsuits that stretch the limits of credibility, showing no regard for the livelihoods he destroys along the way. This website is here to expose the devastating impact of Kristensen’s tactics, raise awareness about his aggressive practices, and protect small businesses from being unfairly targeted by him in the future.

Who is John P. Kristensen?

John P. Kristensen is a highly aggressive attorney who has built a reputation for pursuing FEHA (Fair Employment and Housing Act) complaints in ways that devastate small businesses. According to his own website, he doesn’t just look at the facts of a case—he’s interested in whether the defendant is a “bully.” This focus suggests a psychological predisposition to escalate legal fights, prioritizing conflict over fairness.

One of his most troubling tactics is targeting multiple parties simultaneously, alleging that they all managed or controlled the same employee. This is not how FEHA is meant to work. FEHA claims hinge on identifying the actual employer or party responsible, not casting a wide net to pressure multiple parties into settlements. Kristensen’s approach creates chaos, where businesses are forced to defend themselves against baseless claims, even when it is clear that only one party could logically control the employee in question.

This strategy is predatory and unethical. It shows a blatant disregard for fairness, as Kristensen attempts to extract settlements from multiple defendants, knowing only one can be held responsible. Imagine the disorder if this behavior became widespread—companies would struggle to hire or manage employees, fearing relentless litigation from attorneys like Kristensen.

Unfortunately, his track record confirms this aggressive mindset. He has no problem bankrupting small businesses, regardless of whether they were directly involved in the claims. By targeting staffing agencies and other intermediaries, he drags uninvolved parties into expensive, drawn-out legal battles, causing immense collateral damage.

He Doesn’t Care About the Harm He Causes

Even after repeated pleas to stop, Kristensen relentlessly pursued a case against a mom-and-pop staffing agency, fully aware of the financial toll it would take. Despite knowing that his actions would result in the company’s bankruptcy, job losses, and economic ruin for its owners, he refused to relent. For Kristensen, this wasn’t just about the facts of the case—it was about conflict for conflict’s sake. His actions highlight a troubling willingness to prioritize litigation victories over the livelihoods of hard-working small business owners and their employees.

The Consequences of His Actions

John P. Kristensen’s aggressive tactics have far-reaching consequences:

Businesses Are Destroyed: Kristensen’s approach pushes companies into costly legal battles, often bankrupting small businesses that simply cannot afford to fight back.
Jobs Are Lost: When businesses are forced to close, their employees are left without work, and entire families suffer the fallout.
Savings Are Wiped Out: Entrepreneurs who built their businesses from the ground up are left with nothing after defending themselves against Kristensen’s relentless tactics.
Communities Suffer: The ripple effects of these closures harm neighborhoods, leaving them without essential businesses, economic stability, and the unique character small businesses bring.

A Dangerous Pattern of Behavior

Kristensen’s fixation on conflict is evident not just in his cases but in his public persona. Instead of focusing solely on facts and evidence, he admits to evaluating whether defendants are “bullies”—an approach that signals a desire for confrontation rather than fairness.

By weaponizing California’s employment laws, Kristensen forces small businesses into settlements or financial ruin. His willingness to push cases through appeals demonstrates a single-minded focus on draining resources, even when the defendants have strong legal defenses.

Even more troubling is his practice of targeting multiple defendants in the same case, alleging they all managed or controlled the same employee. This is a clear misuse of FEHA, which is designed to hold a single responsible employer accountable. By casting a wide net, Kristensen creates unnecessary legal battles, extracting settlements from multiple parties who should never have been included in the first place.

This isn’t justice—it’s destruction.

A Final Message

John P. Kristensen’s actions go far beyond aggressive legal representation. His willingness to bankrupt small businesses, cost employees their jobs, and ruin lives reveals a disturbing lack of regard for the real-world consequences of his actions. His fixation on fighting perceived “bullies,” as highlighted on his own website, suggests a troubling mindset where litigation becomes a tool of destruction rather than a path to justice.

The misuse of FEHA by targeting multiple parties for the same claim further underscores the predatory nature of his practice. This tactic creates unnecessary chaos, destroys businesses, and undermines the very principles of fairness that our legal system is meant to uphold.
